In The Long Run

Song In The Long Run
Artist The Staves
Album Dead & Born & Grown

Lyrics

Lying, a dreamer, dreaming beside me
The city sirens keep me awake
And I know
I’ll see you again in the long run
People they tell me I should be careful
That you’ll worry, and I’m already miles away
But I know
I’ll see you again in the long run
And I know
I’ll meet you again in the long run
But we can’t be lovers
‘Cause I’m still afraid
Of leaving the things I love dearly.
I wander, I roam, I write home to tell you
That I’m sorry,
I won’t leave it this late again.
But I know
I’ll see you again in the long run
And I know
I’ll meet you again in the long run
But I can’t be married
You’ll take me away
From everything that I love dearly
And we can’t be lovers
You’ll take me away from my home
My home
My home
But I know
I’ll see you again in the long run
