The Boy’s Still Running
[Verse 1]
We run before we learn to walk
"I want, I want" will strike the spark
We cry before we learn to talk
I was the boy to brave the dark
You've got to swim against the tide
If you want to see the other side
Greedy heart and hand and eye
Kiss the world, never die
[Verse 2]
Tonight I say it's no regrets
Tell me who you loved, the rest is dross
Forget the land of might-have-been
Drain the glass and never count the cost
Even when I'm lost I see
The lake still shining through the trees
Above the roar of everything
The endless song the siren sings
[Pre-Chorus]
If you're looking for me
Hey, if you're looking for me
[Chorus]
The boy's still running
The boy's still running
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
[Verse 3]
We run before we learn to walk
We cry before we learn to talk
You've got to swim against the tide
If you want to see the other side
Even when I'm lost I see
The lake still shining through the trees
Above the roar of everything
The endless song the siren sings
[Pre-Chorus]
If you're looking for me
Hey, if you're looking for me
[Chorus]
The boy's still running
The boy's still running
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
[Outro]
The boy's still running
