Running from Home - Bert Jansch

Running from Home Lyrics

Runnin', runnin' from home
Breakin' ties that you'd grown
Catchin' dreams from the cloudsThe city sounds burn your soul
Turn your head to the cries
Of loneliness in the nightJust like a fly when it's caught
The spider soon takes it's prey
Spins a dance round your heartGive me your beauty and age
A pleasure pleasing my mind
Your heart will shatter and fallStep on pavements so old
Cast a glance at the young
Girls a making their wayThe passing image of you
Reflects a pain to my heart
And disappears in a crowdRunnin', runnin' from home
Breakin' ties that you'd grown
Catchin' dreams from the clouds
