The Longer I Run

When my blood runs warm with an old red wine,

I missed the life that I left behind.

And when I hear the sound of the blackbird's cry

I know I left in the nick of time.

Well this road I'm on is gonna turn to sand.

And leave me lost in a far off land

So let me ride the wind 'til I don't look back

Forget the life that I almost had.

If I wander until I die

May I know whose hand I'm in

If my home I'll never find

Then let me live again.

The longer I run the less that I find, selling my soul for a nickel & dime.

Breaking my heart to keep singing these rhymes

I'm losing again

Tell my brother please not to look for me

I ain't the man that I used to be

But if my savior comes could you let him know

I've gone away for to save my soul.

If I wander until I die

May I know whose hand I'm in

If my home I'll never find

Then let me live again.

The longer I run the less that I find, selling my soul for a nickel & dime.

Breaking my heart to keep singing these rhymes

I'm losing again
