I've gone and done it again Every time I think I'm more than myself I go and I've gone and left you again I know I said, "I'd only be an hour" But I ran into a friend And I watch the sky my heart beating Fearing for the fear relieving rain When I see those eyes gently pleading I wonder why I run away, I run away Mumbling with my old friend ambition Something about the way that the wind Has of blurring vision Lying in the shade of a cathedral With my eyes closed, closed to the day And the cry of the wounded minstrel And I watch the sky my heart beating Fearing for the fear relieving rain When I see those eyes gently pleading I wonder why I run away, I run away I know I'll do it again As long as the rain is a stone's throw From the point of my pen And I watch the sky my heart beating Fearing for the fear relieving rain When I see those eyes gently pleading I wonder why I run away, I run away I watch the sky my heart beating Fearing for the fear relieving rain When I see those eyes gently pleading I wonder why I run away, I run away I run away, I run away
