The Runaway (For Gordon Downie)
His eyes are open wide
As the embers fade and fly
We got home late
He said just stay
Look at the stars tonight
I'll see you in the sky
Driving down the highway
I'll be back someday
And may all the things
Come back to you some day
Can you hear the rain tonight
Falling down over me
Static on the radio
It's the only fucking song we know
Hang me in the sun to dry
We'll get it all back in time
Find out what you're looking for
Till life comes kickin' down your door
Maybe it's the things we don't say
Or the things we do
You're the run
You're the run
You're The Runaway
In empty spaces you can't hide
You can run
You can run
You can runaway
Through your eyes you'll see the light
Oh, you can run
Let her roads take you home
And the light hit your bones
All this is and all we are
We cling to life and name the stars
Of all the things I've ever done
This one here, weighs a ton
You can't say that we never tried
Up here where the good one's die
You're the run
You're the run
You're The Runaway
In empty spaces you can't hide
You can run
You can run
You can runaway
Through your eyes you'll see the light
You're the run
You're the run
You're The Runaway
In empty spaces you can't hide
You can run
You can run
You can runaway
Through your eyes you'll see the light
You can run
You can run
You can runaway
The Runaway
As the embers fade and fly
We got home late
He said just stay
Look at the stars tonight
I'll see you in the sky
Driving down the highway
I'll be back someday
And may all the things
Come back to you some day
Can you hear the rain tonight
Falling down over me
Static on the radio
It's the only fucking song we know
Hang me in the sun to dry
We'll get it all back in time
Find out what you're looking for
Till life comes kickin' down your door
Maybe it's the things we don't say
Or the things we do
You're the run
You're the run
You're The Runaway
In empty spaces you can't hide
You can run
You can run
You can runaway
Through your eyes you'll see the light
Oh, you can run
Let her roads take you home
And the light hit your bones
All this is and all we are
We cling to life and name the stars
Of all the things I've ever done
This one here, weighs a ton
You can't say that we never tried
Up here where the good one's die
You're the run
You're the run
You're The Runaway
In empty spaces you can't hide
You can run
You can run
You can runaway
Through your eyes you'll see the light
You're the run
You're the run
You're The Runaway
In empty spaces you can't hide
You can run
You can run
You can runaway
Through your eyes you'll see the light
You can run
You can run
You can runaway
The Runaway
