The Staves - In the Long Run Lyrics
Lying, a dreamer, dreaming beside meThe city sirens keep me awakeAnd I knowI’ll see you again in the long runPeople they tell me I should be carefulThat you’ll worry, and I’m already miles awayBut I knowI’ll see you again in the long runAnd I knowI’ll meet you again in the long runBut we can’t be lovers‘Cause I’m still afraidOf leaving the things I love dearly.I wander, I roam, I write home to tell youThat I’m sorry,I won’t leave it this late again.But I knowI’ll see you again in the long runAnd I knowI’ll meet you again in the long runBut I can’t be marriedYou’ll take me awayFrom everything that I love dearlyAnd we can’t be loversYou’ll take me away from my homeMy homeMy homeBut I knowI’ll see you again in the long run
