Don’t She Run

Ride, ride ahead of me
By his side, side instead of me
You are young, you have time to get it wrong

Cry, cry the night away
Say goodbye, bye and right away
I’ll be there, there to hold him when you’re gone

And even if you were to fly
you would fly ever behind him
Fail ever to bind him to your side

And even if he could fall
you would fall a little bit deeper
Don’t you try to be his keeper like I tried

Don’t she run, don’t she run to be beside of him
Don’t she run, don’t she run to be beside of him
Don’t she run, like I ran, ran and ran, I never got home

Hide, hide the evidence
Deep inside, side instead of him
knowing why, You’re always on the run

I arrive as you’re leaving him
He’s alive, yet we’re grieving him
Does he know, even now what he has done?

And even if you were to fly
you would fly ever behind him
Fail ever to bind him to your side

And even if he could fall
you would fall a little bit deeper
Don’t you try to be his keeper like I tried

Don’t she run, don’t she run to be beside of him
Don’t she run, don’t she run to be beside of him
Don’t she run, like I ran, ran and ran, I never got home
