In The Long Run Lyrics - The Staves

Lying, a dreamer dreaming beside me 

The city sirens keep me awake 

I know I'll see you again in the long run 

People, they tell me I should be careful 

That you worry and I'm already miles away 

But I know I'll see you again in the long run 

And I know I'll meet you again in the long run 

But we can't be lovers 'cause I'm still afraid 

Of leaving the things I love dearly 

I wonder, I rode my ride home to tell you 

That I'm sorry, I won't leave it this late again 

But I know I'll see you again in the long run 

And I know I'll meet you again in the long run 

But I can't marry, you'll take me away 

From everything that I love dearly 

And we can't be lovers, you'll take me away 

From my home 

But I know I'll see you again in the long run
