Lyrics
LET ME RUN
(Music & lyrics: Robert Baitinger)
Verse 1:
Long ago
I held your hand
And you called me
Your sweet little baby
Verse 2:
Just look at me
Now I’m all grown up
Hey, can’t you see
It’s time to set me free
Pre-chorus:
Wanna say goodbye
To yesterday
‘Cause time’s not waiting for me
Chorus:
Let me run
Let me break away
And touch the sky
There’s a battle to be won
It can be done
I’ll spread my wings
And learn to fly
If you’d just let me run
Verse 3:
Times will come
When I’ll be down and out
And all alone
That’s when I’ll call you on the phone
Verse 4:
I’ll - take the flames
And I’ll look at life
As one big game
I’m gonna - overcome the strain
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Bridge:
I can’t say just how much I love you
But I’ve got to walk this road alone
I’ll do it my way, I’ll carry through
I wanna make it on my own
Chorus
