run with me

Keane

Well you could write it in the dirt girl
Write it on a ten pound note
Everything that I have learned so far
Nothing's worth knowing till you know your part

Times are getting leaner
If ever you were on my side
Oh how I wish that you were stood here now
Leading me to shelter when the night comes down

"Baby," you said, "We're not ever gonna go home."
And "Baby, will you run with me wherever I go?"

Well it's the pressure of the years girl
Burning little holes in love
Till we make every little thing so hard
Nothing comes easy to a cage-like heart

Now the light is failing
If ever you were at my side
Then love I need you to be stood there now
Down to the wire where the bad ones go

"Baby," you said, "We're not ever gonna go home."
And "Baby, will you run with me wherever I go?"
Well maybe those words never really mattered at all
But lately those words run with me wherever I go.
