In the Long Run

Lying, a dreamer, dreaming beside me
 The city sirens keep me awake
 And I know
 I'll see you again in the long run
 People they tell me I should be careful
 That you'll 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 wander, I roam, I write 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 be married
 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
 My home
 My home
 But I know
 I'll see you again in the long run
