I'd Rather Walk Than Run

And you said you didn't care about distance

That being miles apart didn't make any difference

I told you i was slow and you thought that it was fun

And i said: "well, i'd rather walk than run"

And if one day i make it back to my homeland

If people know the songs that i wrote for my band

Well, i'll buy new shoes for my daughter and a house for my mum

But you know i'd rather walk than run

And you told me not to take the long way home nightly

You told me: "david, you shouldn't take it lightly

You could get chased by some crook or even mocked by a bomb

And i was like: "mum, i'd rather walk than run"

And it is crazy to thing how mad i made you

And it's weird to think how bad now i miss you

Like when you stood there awaiting for me in the early morning sun

And i was like: "i'd rather walk than run"

And now the aching in my heart amuse me

And memories of you confuse me

But if i have to rush to get you back, i will go alone

And you know i'd rather walk than run

Well you know i'd rather walk than run
