Lyrics Paul Westerberg

Paul Westerberg

Runaway Wind

You don't blow like the breeze, you were born to be

You die down in the trees and try and hide

Will you witness the dark, all you need is a spark

A cathedral of torches light the night

On your mark, here I am

I'm your spark, runaway wind

Run runaway wind

You trade your telescope for a keyhole

And make way for the gray that's in your brown

As dreams made way for plans

See you watch life from the stands

Come on I'll help you burn 'em to the ground

On your mark, here I am

I'm your spark, runaway wind

He sees you like a river, deep and silent

And he runs to you like a shallow noisy stream

I see what you've become and try to hide it

You need someone who sees what you were born to be

Here I am

You don't blow like the breeze, you were born to be

You don't know what to do with your life

As day returns to dark, flame returns to spark

Come on I feel I'm blowing out tonight

I'm your spark, here I am

I'm your spark, here I am

I'm your spark, here I am

On your mark runaway wind

Watch you run

Watch you run

Watch you run
