Lyrics
I'm always runnin' behind
I don't know what it is
I'm guessin' that old Nissan engine
Got something to do with it
Like the day we broke down
Way out over on
The high roller side of town
Took all our money
To get our wheels back on the ground
There's not a doubt in my mind
I'll be seein' you soon
Lord knows I've been drivin'
The early mornin' into the afternoon
And don't you send me no trouble
'Cause I'll be there in time
There's too many shadows
Out on those county roads tonight
And the longer I run (longer he runs)
And the more I grow tired
From chasing a feelin' (chasing a feelin')
Of a restless numb kind (it's so kind)
But the longer I stay (ooh, ooh)
Within the more of a mess
I tend to make (what a mess he makes)
I ain't leavin'
I just don't feel like comin' home today
No, no
All of my life
I have been dreamin'
Of a way to keep my years of self-abuse
From gettin' even
Today, I saw an eagle
Flying over a crimson evening sun
Like a vision that this livin'
Is far from just begun
Ooh, and the longer I run (longer he runs)
And the more I grow tired
From chasing a feelin' (chasing a feelin')
Of a restless numb kind (it's so kind)
But the longer I stay (ooh, ooh)
Within the more of a mess
I tend to make (what a mess he makes)
I ain't leavin'
I just don't feel like comin' home today
Oh, oh-oh, I ain't leavin', I just don't feel like comin' home today
Hmm, mm, not today
Standing outside now
Out of the house
Now nothin' goes in
And nothin' comes out
All that to say
It's like I've been here before
A caught staring at the wrong side of the door
