We Could Run Lyrics - Beth Ditto

On television kings and queens, 

Lives the lives of peoples dreams, 

You and I are human beings, 

Living breathing things. 

There are rules that I'm meant to break, 

You could call this a great mistake, 

We could always play it safe, 

But that's not fun. 

We could run, We could run. 

Hold me close and hold me fast, 

I never thought you'd ever ask, 

Some moments were meant to last, 

But this ain't one, 

We could run, We could run. 

We could run, We could run. 

We could run, We could run. 

We could run, We could run. 

This is the last time I mean it, 

The final dance of the evening, 

The curtain call, the final bow,
