"Can't Run But" lyrics
"Can't Run But"
I can't run but I can walk much faster than this
Can't run but
I can't run but I can walk much faster than this
Can't run but
A cooling system burns out in the Ukraine
Trees and umbrellas protect us from the new rain
Armies of engineers to analyze the soil
The food we contemplate, the water that we boil
I can't run but I can walk much faster than this
Can't run but
I can't run but I can walk much faster than this
Can't run but
I had a dream about us
In the bottles and the bones of the night
I felt a pain in my shoulder blade
Was like a pencil point, a love bite
A couple was rubbing against us
Rubbing and doing that new dance
The man was wearing a jacket and jeans
The woman was laughing in advance
I can't run but I can walk much faster than this
Can't run but
I can't run but I can walk much faster than this
Can't run but
A winding river gets wound around a heart
Pull it tighter and tighter until the muddy waters part
Down by the riverbank, a blues band arrives
The music suffers, baby, the music business thrives
I can't run but I can walk much faster than this
Can't run but
I can't run but I can walk much faster than this
Can't run but

Van Morrison - "The Way Young Lovers Do" We strolled through fields all wet with rain
And back along the lane again
There in the sunshine
In the sweet summertime
The way that young lovers do
I kissed you on the lips once more
And we said...
Wings - "Wild Life" The word "wild" applies to the words "you" and "me"
While taking a walk through an African park one day
I saw a sign say, "The animals have the right of way"
Wild life, whatever happened to
Wild...
Boz Scaggs - "I'll Be Long Gone" I'll be long gone
By the time you make up your mind
Gotta make my own way
Around the kinda misery I find
I'll send you my best
Of regards and the rest
I'll leave up to your own sense of time
Yes...
The Beach Boys - "Feel Flows" Unfolding, enveloping missiles of soul
Recall senses sadly
Mirage like soft blue, like lanterns below
To light the way gladly
Whether whistling heaven's clouds disappear
Whether wind withers memory...
Ween - "Freedom Of '76" Freedom of the body
Freedom of the mind
A ho on South Street hired for tricks
Little girls pickin' up sticks
Freedom of '76
Wastee little weasel
Wants cheap tricks
Liberty bell cracked in...
