"Pagan Run" lyrics

Yusuf / Cat Stevens Lyrics

"Pagan Run"

I was on the pagan run, on a superstitious road
Looking for a day to come to park my restless soul
I was lost and in a mess, too proud to beg or bow
Though I'd never admit it, I was scared as hell

She said, "Come along with me
I'll take you home
I'll make you warm again"
Then left me cold

I was on the pagan run, avarice was my road
A pilgrim for holy money, chasing an empty hole

She said, "Come along with me
I'll take you home
I'll make you warm again"
Then left me cold

I was on the pagan run, hiding from the world
Frightened of everyone, scared of what the future may hold
Scared of what the future may hold

I took the wrong road, God showed me where to go
I took the wrong road, God showed me where
I took the wrong road, God showed me where to go
I took the wrong road, God showed me where

I tuned out everyone
Oh, God save me!
I submit myself
To You
