Run Lyrics by Peter Serrado

Sunset & a City

0

[Verse 1]
We were just two young boys doing what we were supposed to
We hear our mothers crying out our names:
"Come home before it gets too dark
You know how I feel about the woods this late"
We didn't care not a single bit
It's the bottom of the ninth and all I need is one hit
Jimmy hit it, and he hit it real far
And was halted by a man he saw

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And in my mind
I felt his scars and those eyes speaking out to me

[Chorus 1]
All I could do was scream and run
While looking back behind my shoulder
Something strikes me to tell me I might not know
But all I could think was run, and run, and run, and run
Just run away on home
But when I looked back in fear
He was laughing back at me

[Verse 2]
"Hey just hold on, son, what are you afraid of?
You know, I played when I was just your age
Go along, let me see what you've got"
So he threw it up high, of this I never thought
He came to life, every single bit
"Now go tell your mother, I can give a few tips:
Don't be alarmed, they're from time ago
I'm only human, I'm your Average Joe"

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And in my mind
I felt the kindness in his eyes speaking out to me

[Chorus 2]
All I could do was scream and run
While looking back behind my shoulder
Something strikes me to tell me I might not know
But all I could think was run, and run, and run, and run
Just run away on home
But when I looked back I smiled
And I laughed right back at him

[Bridge]
Oh I was staring, I was praying
But you can't always tell
Oh we never stopped believing
It all just seemed so true
He's just a man with some tales
Inside a heart of gold
Not all scars give us light
To what we know

[Chorus 3]
All I could do was scream and run
While looking back behind my shoulder
Something strikes me to tell me I might not know
But all I could think was run, and run, and run, and run
Just run away on home
But when I looked back in fear
He threw the ball right back to me

[Outro]
I was running for my life
I was running and running
I was running and running
He threw the ball right back to me
