Run free, run fast
Some run for miles, some run for days
Some run for fun in no particular way
Some minutes pass, and some may stay
Never your breath for granted
Cause it will all fade away
Some run free, and some run fast
Some of the young run straight into the past
But what will be, will surely be
If the water gets rough
Tread lightly
Gotta keep running
You tread lightly
Gotta keep running
Tread lightly
Imagination blooms, and life gets so consumed
As a small child you were dancing with brooms
You've got to learn to dance off the blues
Gotta dance the souls right off your shoes
Some run free, and some run fast
Some of the young run straight into the past
But what will be, will surely be
If the water gets rough
Tread lightly
Gotta keep running
You tread lightly
I say you gotta keep running
Tread lightly
Well you, tread lightly
I say you've got to tread lightly
Run, run, run, run, run, run, oh yeah
Run, run, run, run, run, run, oh yeah
