DWhen my heart is ready to burst,When the world spins in reverse
GI'll keep running To the place where I belonDg
DWhen you go, turn down the light No one's here to hold you in the night
I'll keep running GTo the place where I beloDng
When you think you're on your oBmwn GI'm still coming homeD  
When our picture fades in the sun And all the colors blur in the one
 DI'll keep running GTo the place where I belonDg
WAhen you think you're on yBmour own GI'm still coming hDome!
WhGen your all Dgets blinded
WheAn you fold with the caDrds
