My home town is filled with broken dreams

Folks back there are running from life it seems

I left as a young man running from a memory

 I'm still running I'll always be running

My father died a broken man by his own hands

One of life's casualities lost in the sand

He showed us a way to love a way to understand

 He finally stopped running oh he finally stopped running

 I can still see the fire in his eyes when he held my mom tight

 The love in his heart when he made it all right

Racing his mind that was never won

 So if you're gonna run what you running from

 The years flew by like a runaway train

I never caught up I never got use to change

Cause change is the only thing that I'd ever known

 I'm still running and I'm still running

 I can still see the fire in his eyes when he held my mom tight

 The love in his heart when he made it all right

Racing his mind that was never won

 So if you're gonna run what you running from

With my face to the wind I stand all alone

Scattered memories taken all I own

A families love can help you along

 But I'm still running I'll always be running

 I can still see the fire in his eyes when he held my mom tight

 The love in his heart when he made it all right

Racing his mind that was never won

 So if you're gonna run what you running from
