Well
I've been known to run in circles
Whichever way the wind blows
Like something from a bad dream
Where someone's climbing through your window
Was standing out on First Street
Was hoping I could come clean So I called you from a payphone
Cause ain't nobody wanna be alone But what if I fall behind
And what if I lose my way
Will you see the stutter in the step
Or the lines in my face Or the strain in my voice
I'm always running from the shadows The things that I can't change
Like I'm waiting on the rain
When I was just a young boy Before my mom became a widow
My father told a story And I still hear it in my pillow
Yeah, it's something about a circus
And wherever life will take us
Oh,
the road don't get clearer If you're stuck looking in the mirror
But what if I fall behind
And what if I lose my way
Will you see the stutter in the step Or the lines in my face
Or the strain in my voice I'm always running from the shadows
The things that I can't change Like I'm waiting on the rain
Well,
I've been living with my fingers crossed
Praying to God that I'm not forgot
I keep wandering through open doors Till I ain't gotta search no more
Till I ain't gotta search no more But what if I fall behind
And what if I lose my way Will you see the stutter in the step
Or the lines in my face Or the strain in my voice
I'm always running from the shadows The things that I can't change
Like I'm waiting on the rain
