Run Baby Run

Jason Upton


I've been calling you to go to the city 
I've been watching you every day 
Now I'm paying for a one way ticket 
for a ship that sails the opposite way 

And you laugh and you cry
and you live and you die
cause you don't really know who you are 
All alone in this world 
orphan boy orphan girl 
cause you don't really know who you are 

Run baby run 
my hands release you 
baby run baby run 
just as fast as you can 
Run till your legs lead your heart to the real truth 
You're my daughter my son 
so run baby run baby run 

Hear me laughing as you run from your calling 
See me crying see me crying in the storms that rage 
One way or another you will be going
To obey is such an easier way
