The Longer I Run

When my blood runs warm with the warm red wine

I miss the life that I left behind

But when I hear the sound of the blackbirds cry

I know I left in the nick of time

Well this road I'm on's gonna turn to sand

And leave me lost in a far off land

So let me ride the wind til I don't look back

Forget the life that I almost had

If I wonder til I die

May I know who's hand I'm in

If my home I'll never find

And let me live again

The longer I run

Then the less that I find

Sellin' my soul for a nickel and dime

Breakin' my heart to keep singing these rhymes

And losing again

The longer I run

Then the less that I find

Sellin' my soul for a nickel and dime

Breakin' my heart to keep singing these rhymes

And losing again

Tell my brother please not to look for me

I ain't the man that I used to be

But if my savior comes could you let him know

I've gone away for to save my soul

If I wonder 'til I die

May I know who's hand I'm in

If my home I'll never find

And let me live again

The longer I run

Then the less that I find

Sellin' my soul for a nickel and dime

Breakin' my heart to keep singing these rhymes

And losing again

The longer I run

Then the less that I find

Sellin' my soul for a nickel and dime

Breakin' my heart to keep singing these rhymes

And losing again

Losing again

The longer I run

I'm losing again

Losing again
