Time goes fast don’t ya know
It’ll be over now
Before you take the floor

Time goes fast don’t be slow
It’ll be over now
Before you have a go

Have ya ever wanted to run
Run right back to where you’re from
Anyone can see
Yeah few get a second run

If ya ever wanted to run
Try for a second run?
Turn and face the place your from
Looking for just one home run

Remember when we saw the show
So much fun, the night
Yeah you know we had to go

Now and then, time and again
Seconds grow
You can’t stop I know, we all know

Have ya ever wanted to run
Run right back to where your from
Anyone can see
Yeah few get a second run

If you’ve ever wanted to run
Then you’re not the only one

Background

Wanted To Run is about second chances. Our days follow a path, bound by choice and circumstance.

For many stepping off the path requires courage that is out of reach. Perhaps the luckiest of us walk no path at all.

If you could, would you choose a different way?
