Intro||: | / /G:|| x2
(same pattern as intro)
Im passing sleeping cities
Fading by degrees
Not believing all I see to be so
Im flyin' over backyards
Country homes and ranches
Watching life between the branches below
And its hard to say
Who you are these days
But you run on anyway
Dont you baby?
You keep running for another place
To find that saving grace
Im moving on alone
over ground that no one owns
Past statues that atone for my sins
Theres a guard on every door
And a drink on every floor
Overflowing with a thousand amens
Youre rolling up the carpet
Of your fathers two-room mansion
No headroom for expansion no more
And theres a corner of the floor
Theyre telling you is yours
Youre confident but not really sure
Chorus
You keep running for another place
To find that saving grace
Dont you baby?
