The Man Who Ran Away - And Also the Trees

There’s something in the air

An emptiness that creeps alone with me

I’m standing at the door where the wind sighs low

And the lightening flutters across the sky line

Somebody watches me from across the street

I just say give me some peace

And I watch the clouds turn grey into gold

Feel I couldn’t stop it

The man who ran away

Far across the open sea

But I turned fear to shame

Like a fool I sit on beggars hill

I search my mind with time to kill

And when I call your name you answer me

And your voice seems to set me free

And I watch the clouds turn grey into gold
