My son runs to the shore
+/to
To the world that lies before
But he cant hear my sound
+/to
Hes much too in tune with the ground
He sees only the tide and the surf and the sea
Hes oblivious to me calling
+/to
In years to come I will still call him son
Hell have no time to wait
+/to
He must see beyond his fate
Hell say only the sun and the wind make him free
His only defence will always be
Why walk when you can run
X2
Run like the wind run like the wind
Run like the wind run like the wind
Run like the wind run like the wind
+/to
Run like the wind run like the wind my son
Through sheets of time
+/to
On the wings of a bird
Hell come to the edge
+/to
To look life in the eyes
Hell see only the keys to the world and is dreams
His strongest defence will always be
Why walk when you can run
Run like the wind run like the wind
Run like the wind run like the wind
Run like the wind run like the wind
Run like the wind run like the wind my son
X2
Run like the wind run like the wind
No turning back no giving in
Run like the wind run like the wind
Run like the wind run like the wind my son
