Running Free

when you were a child
you used to take off and run
going nowhere, just running
you'd do it for fun.
now you're a man
and gone is the child
when you go running
you do it to hide

why don't you run free
like you used to before
set yourself loose
throw open the door

you walk in a hurry
watching the clock
to get to your business
but you want it to stop
can't find the answer?
let your child show you how
if you listen they'll tell you
the time to start running is now

why don't you run free
like you used to before
set yourself loose
throw open the door

and so you sprint wild
as you did in the past
running nowhere just running
you're running so fast
remember the moment
the feeling inside
your spirit runs free
your soul is alive

and now you run free
like you used to before
set yourself loose
then run on some more
