Run Boy - Lyrics by Spirit Of The West


Lyrics
you cannot stop a river if it has a place to goyou can rediret the water but you can't arrest the flowyou can dam it, but you'll damn yourselfthen you'll never knowwhere the river would have taken you if you had let itrun boy, run boythe  ground feels strange, strange beneth your feetthe ice looks thin, the water looks so deepthere is no right or wrong path, only good or badthe bad one leaves you looking back at what you could have had,you betterrun boy, run boythe silence of your planted feet is rising out with dangerrun boy, run boybefore the need to move and grow will grow into a strangeryou have to stick your neck out to reach for the toplay it all on the line, pull out all the stopsjump in with both feet where the wild river runsyou'll prove them all wrong who said it could not be donestand up, stand up,  everything has it's pricethe more you achieve, the more you sacrificedon't you listen when you're told about the "best days in your life"a useless old expression it means passing time until you dierun boy, run boythe silence of your planted feet is ringing out with dangerrun boy, run boybefore the need to move and grow will grow into a strangersomebody's watching you somebody's watching youi'm out here watching you telling you to runyou will never stop this riverit has a place to go!
