run for the sun

Roy Orbison

Orbison/Price

I've heard some people say that you should live just for today
And not let your life just drag on and on
Now since you've come along I know that they're not wrong
And together we'll make a run for the sun

I've wasted my time living line by line, taking it sure, taking it slow

But since you touched my hand, now I can understand
And I know why that we can fly and we will have fun
While we make a run for the sun, a run for the sun

Too shy at the start, to open my heart, I couldn't chance getting hurt

You showed me the way, how to live for today
You were the key, you came to me and now I am free
Now look what we've done, we've had our fun
We made our run all the way to the sun
All of the way, all the way to the sun
