|
Ever since |
|
I was a little kid |
|
I have always thought |
|
I could run faster than the wind |
|
Stare up to the sky with open spaces |
|
I could live and die |
|
Man you can't find that in no book |
|
Never find that in no book |
|
Someone will drag you down |
|
And try to knock you under |
|
Hey mama said with her words of wonder |
|
Don't matter cause |
|
Cause it's in your soul |
|
I have always felt |
|
That I had to prove it to myself |
|
No salvation from the firin' line |
|
A million dreams won't set you free |
|
God I know there's something trapped in me |
|
There's no refuge from the ride |
|
No shelter ever saved a man his pride |
|
Give you pain and never feed your hunger |
|
I won't close my eyes |
|
When it rains and thunders |
|
Don't matter cause |
|
Cause it's in your soul |
|
And when the night is overcome |
|
And I've been racin' down a road |
|
That's got no trace, no face |
|
If I could live by the words |
|
I've sung |
|
And carry all the choices |
|
I've made |
|
I swear, I swear |
|
I'll be there |
|
Hey mister don't shadow box with me |
|
Cause I don't wanna someday be |
|
An old man cursin' what |
|
I might have been |
|
Now I realize what |
|
I see That the wind was never chasin' me |
|
And I don't feel so alone |
|
I can close my eyes |
|
I'm goin' home |
|
Behind the clouds the sun is shinin' |
|
Some rain will fall no use cryin' |
|
O no, o no not me |
|
Got a picture in my head |
|
That won't let go of |
|
Young man running in search of |
|
Count your blessings |
|
Cause it's in your soul |
|
O it's in your soul |
|
In your soul, o no |
|
Ever since |
|
I was a little kid |
|
I have always thought |
|
Young man running... |
