Run Like You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Rome wasn't buildt in just one day you better tie those shoes
How do you expect to find your way till daylight's breaking loose
Good things come to those who wait I won't be hard to find
If you stop through and hesitate hope that you're still kind
Get moving you're proving things to us all
You're teaching we're reaching out before we fall
I want to run like you right beside what's true
I want to run like you no telling what we'd find
What am I going to do while you're away praying for God speed
Wish that I could make you stay but that's not what you need
You're ready you're headed straight through tomorrow
Don't forget as you set the world on fire
Oh I want to run like you heaven passing through
I want to run like you to telling what we'll find
[ guitar - steel ]
You're ready you're headed straight through tomorrow
I want to run like you right beside what's true
I want to run like you no telling what we'd find
Oh I want to run like you go ahead and I'll catch up
There's no telling what we'd find
