In The Long Run

Lying a dreamer
Dreaming beside me
The city sirens keep me awake
And I know
I'll see you again
In the long run
People they tell me
I should be careful
That you'll worry
And I'm already miles away
But I know
I'll see you again in the long run
And I know
I'll meet you again in the long run
But we can't be lovers
Cause I'm still afraid
Of leaving the things I love dearly
I wander I roam
I write home to tell you
That I'm sorry
I won't leave it this late again
But I know
I'll see you again in the long run
And I know
I'll meet you again in the long run
But I can't be married
You'll take me away
From everything that I love dearly
And we can't be lovers
You'll take me away from my home
My home
My home
But I know
I'll see you again in the long run
