Runnin

The expression you were wearing of emotional pain Like anybody struggling to keep himself sane I'll run with you, brother, in the midnight rain When we run out of track on the glory train I will go running with you Running in the Georgian night We, together, will be better than me Together, we surrender to fight Got the good time on the radio I was moving too fast, I was bound to get slow I wonder, dear brother, is it well with your soul? If the Lord is the shepherd, will the sheep ever know? I will go running with you Running in the Texan night We, together, will be better than me Together, we surrender to fight You woke up drunk on the kitchen floor The day your daddy died, you didn't drink anymore You gave up the beer but you still got the fear I'm terrified with you, brother, now I'm here I will go running with you Running in the Illinois night We, together, will be better than me Together, we surrender to fight I thought you were dead and I'd have to let you go When we wrecked driving drunk down in New Mexico I walked out the hospital and I got the news You're alive now, I'm still singing you Rex's blues I will go running with you Running in the Missouri night We, together, will be better than me Together, we surrender to fight When you took the trolley to the top of the arch Your heart started thumping and your vision got dark When you let me into your peaceful place I burned down your house and now I'm hiding my face I will one day run with you Run in the unknown night We, together, will be better than me Together, we surrender to fight I heard the whisper of the Lord in your voice Calling me back up and giving me another choice The needle hanging in, I collapsed on the floor You were both crying out to me and banging on the door I will one day run with you Run in the unknown night We, together, will be better than me Together we surrender to fight Together, we surrender to fight
