Why Walk When You Can Run Lyrics - Paul Weller

My son runs to the shore 

To the world that lies before 

He can't hear my sound 

He's much to in tune with the ground 

He sees only the tide 

And the surf and the sea 

He's oblivious to me calling 

In years to come 

I will still call him son 

But he'll have no time to wait 

He must see beyond his fate 

He sees only the sun 

And the wind make it free 

His only defense will always be 

Why walk when you can run?

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Run like the wind my son 

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Run like the wind my son 

Through sheets of time 

Are the wings of a bird 

He'll come to the edge 

To look life in the eyes 

Is he holding the keys 

To the world and his dreams? 

His strongest defense will always be 

Why walk when you can run? 

Why walk when you can run?

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Run like the wind my son 

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Don't turn your back, no giving in 

Run like the wind, run like the wind 

Run like the wind my son
