I Run - Jeanette Lindström

Feeling unprepared

Feeling small, a little scared

Moving much too fast

A mile a minute from my past

Yesterday’s a million miles away

If I just could stay you know I would

Time flies while my past dies

That’s why, that’s why I run

To not be left behind

Yet another place

Another name, another face

Try to not look back

Finding answers on a one-way track

Yesterday’s a million miles away

If I just could stay you know I would

Time flies while my past dies

That’s why, that’s why I run

To not be left behind

Fear of growing old

Fear of sprouting roots I’m told

That which never stalls

Builds a home devoid of walls

Yet another place

Another name, another face

Try to not look back

Finding answers on a one-way track

Yesterday’s a million miles away

If I just could stay you know I would

Time flies while my past dies

That’s why, that’s why I run

To not be left behind
