Now I Run

Tell me how the circle ends

Theres no beginning

Everything that came before

Will come round again

And I look in the mirror

My fathers eyes look back at me

He gave me a road to choose

He gave me freedom

And I pray Im strong enough

To walk in his shoes

And I hope that I become

Half the man he'd want me to be

Cos I feel you guiding me

Showin me the way when Im misdirected

I know your not here but I feel connected

Cos everything that I am

Comes from a better man

And all that Ive said and done

Cant rewrite my history

Right there for all to see

Im just my fathers son

Taught me to walk, now I run

Now I run

Sometimes when I lose myself

In my weakness

I can feel the touch of his

Unmistakable hands

And theyre pushing me forward

Back into the circle again

And I hope my son sees in me

The kind of man that he was to me

And everything that I am

comes from a better man

And all that Ive said and Ive done

Cant rewrite my history

Right there for all to see

Im just my fathers son

Taught me to walk, now I run

I run

He's the best and the worst of me

Sometimes I don't know where my common sense is

I may be a sinner but my best defence is
