Long Distance Runner Lyrics - Matt Nathanson

Grew up believing 

Love was a grudge 

And home was a place 

Where you lived with your guard up 

People keep saying 

Memories fade 

Mine are all drunk 

And they just keep calling 

Well I hear the gun go off 

Crowd go wild 

You're still here 

Mile after mile

Oh, the past is a long distance runner 

And I'm falling further and further behind 

Yeah, the past is a long distance runner 

Going round in my mind, mind, mind 

Round in my mind 

Miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles 

I need some music 

I need some sleep 

I need a lover 

Somebody to move me 

Takes me forever 

And ever to see 

The good in the people 

Who see the good in me

Oh, the past is a long distance runner 

And I'm falling further and further behind 

Yeah, the past is a long distance runner 

Going round in my mind, mind, mind 

Round in my mind 

Miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles 

Miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles 

And I hear the gun go off 

Thunder crack 

And my head says go 

Don't ever look back 

The past is a long distance runner 

And I'm falling further and further behind 

Yeah, the past is a long distance runner 

Going round in my mind, mind, mind 

Round in my mind 

Miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles 

Miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles looking for love 

Keep on going miles
