Run Lyrics by Savannah Harmon

2021

[Verse 1]
Picked up a pen and paper at eleven years old
Wrote my first song right there on my bedroom floor
Somewhere in the basement of my childhood home
Are six strings that wrapped around my soul and never let go

[Verse 2]
I was fifteen when my best friend told me that she had to go
So we filled cardboard boxes full of everything she owned
Haven't been to Holland Drive since God only knows
I cried in the backseat the wholе way home

[Chorus]
I wish I had listened whеn they told me "Girl, slow down
Some day you'll be wishing for the things you have right now
Eighteen's just a number, love and fast cars will come but
You can't get back the moments that really count
If we only get one hundred trips around the sun
Baby, take your time and walk instead of run"

[Verse 3]
At twenty past that boy had me falling fast and free
Coming undone at his velvet touch I miss so much in the backseat
It broke my heart breaking his when I left for Tennessee
'Cause he knew I'd never choose him over chasing down my dreams

[Chorus]
I wish I had listened when they told me "Girl, slow down
Some day you'll be wishing for the things you have right now
Twenty-one is just a number, I know you could use a cold one but
You can't get back the moments that really count
If we only get one hundred trips around the sun
Baby, take your time and walk instead of run"

[Bridge]
Someday I'll be eighty sitting in a rocking chair
Telling my babies' babies about why I have grey hair
If they ask me "What's one thing you wish you'd know at our age?"
I'll look them in the eyes and say

[Chorus]
Promise me you'll listen when I tell you to slow down
'Cause some day you'll be wishing for the things you have right now
Age is just a number, but time flies faster than you think it does and
You can't get back the moments that really count
If we only get one hundred trips around the sun
Baby, take your time and walk instead of run
