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
