It will be fine if I am here
It’s just a little jump
A sudden drop with naught to fear
That ends with a soft thump.
The ***** soles of our tired feet
Are pricked by broken glass
Our skin is burned by summer heat
And obstacles we pass
Our racing hearts will catch no rest
With night just on our heels
To make it we’ll have to do our best
Despite how hard it feels
How odd it is to run so far
So we could be right here
We run on foot, they chase by car,
But now, nothing to fear.
With one more step, we’ll be happy
The fall won’t hurt us much.
Upon a cliff, and by the sea
Wrapped in a loving clutch.

A sudden drop with naught to fear
That ends with a soft thump.
The ***** soles of our tired feet
Are pricked by broken glass
Our skin is burned by summer heat
And obstacles we pass
Our racing hearts will catch no rest
With night just on our heels
To make it we’ll have to do our best
Despite how hard it feels
How odd it is to run so far
So we could be right here
We run on foot, they chase by car,
But now, nothing to fear.
With one more step, we’ll be happy
The fall won’t hurt us much.
Upon a cliff, and by the sea
Wrapped in a loving clutch.
