Run Like You

Jim Lauderdale


Rome wasn't buildt in just one day you better tie those shoes
How do you expect to find your way till daylight's breaking loose
Good things come to those who wait I won't be hard to find
If you stop through and hesitate hope that you're still kind

Get moving you're proving things to us all
You're teaching we're reaching out before we fall
I want to run like you right beside what's true
I want to run like you no telling what we'd find

What am I going to do while you're away praying for God speed
Wish that I could make you stay but that's not what you need

You're ready you're headed straight through tomorrow
Don't forget as you set the world on fire
Oh I want to run like you heaven passing through
I want to run like you to telling what we'll find
[ guitar - steel ]

You're ready you're headed straight through tomorrow
I want to run like you right beside what's true
I want to run like you no telling what we'd find
Oh I want to run like you go ahead and I'll catch up
There's no telling what we'd find
