Running From Home Lyrics
by Bert Jansch
Runnin' runnin' from home,
Breakin' ties that you'd grown
Catchin' dreams from the clouds
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e78637-bert_jansch~running_from_home_lyrics.html ]
The city sounds burn your soul
Turn your head to the cries
Of loneliness in the night
Just like a fly when it's caught
The spider soon takes it's prey
Spins a dance round your heart
Give me your beauty and age
A pleasure pleasing my mind
Your heart will shatter and fall
Step on pavements so old
Cast a glance at the young
Girls a-making their way
The passing image of you
Reflects a pain to my heart
And disappears in a crowd
Runnin' runnin' from home
Breakin' ties that you'd grown
Catchin' dreams from the clouds
