Mon Rovia Running Boy
[Verse 1]
Even the trees shiver
When the wind passes through
Now I'm shivering too
At the thought of you
In my mind's eye you're like a flower
Daffodil
But I can't pick you
Rather let you sit still
[Verse 2]
Church bells and cooling choirs
When I'm down low
My father calls on a higher power
Some lightning bolt
At times peace washed over me
But I didn't understand
Rather spend time with the vagabonds
I'm the ragged one
[Pre-Chorus]
And
(Ooh-oo-ooh)
Where's the rest for my mind
(Ooh-oo-ooh)
I'm closing my eyes
[Chorus]
Running boy
Someday you might dance again
Running boy
You almost lost your chance
And the cops showed up but I didn't get shot I
On the sidewalk with my mother pleading why
Won't you tell em' the truth
[Verse 3]
Pack my bags
Headed down an oceanside
There's a warning sign where the river and sea collide
I can't trust the law
They got quotas
They nickel and dime
My ticket for the truth
No fine for a lie
[Pre-Chorus]
And
(Ooh-oo-ooh)
Where's the rest for my mind
(Ooh-oo-ooh)
I'm closing my eyes
[Chorus]
Running boy
Someday you might dance again
Running boy
You almost lost your chance
And the cops showed up but I didn't get shot I
On the sidewalk with my mother pleading why
Won't you tell em' the truth
Running boy
Someday you might dance again
Running boy
You almost lost your chance
And the cops showed up but I didn't get shot I
On the sidewalk with my mother pleading why
Won't you tell em' the truth
