I was listening to the ocean I was listening to the ocean I saw a face in the sand I saw a face in the sand But when I picked it up But when I picked it up Then it vanished away from my hands He disappeared from my hands
I had a dream I was seven I had a dream, I was seven years old Climbing my way in a tree I was climbing a tree I saw a piece of heaven I saw a piece of paradise Waiting, patient, for me Waiting, patient, for me
And I was running far away And I ran away Would I run off the world someday? Would I run away from the world one day? Nobody knows, nobody knows Nobody knows, nobody knows And I was dancing in the rain And I was dancing in the rain I felt alive and I can't complain I felt alive and I can't complain But now take me home But now take me home Take me home where I belong Take me home, the place where I belong I can't take it anymore I can not stand it anymore
I was painting a picture I was painting a picture The picture was a painting of you The picture was a painting of you And for a moment I thought you were here And for a moment I thought you were there But then again, it wasn't true But then again it wasn't true
And all this time I have been lying And all this time I've been lying Oh, lying in secret to myself Oh I secretly lied to myself I've been putting sorrow on the farst place on my shelf I put sadness in the farthest place on my shelf
And I was running far away And I ran away Would I run off the world someday? Would I run away from the world one day? Nobody knows, nobody knows Nobody knows, nobody knows And I was dancing in the rain And I was dancing in the rain I felt alive and I can't complain I felt alive and I can't complain But now take me home But now take me home Take me home where I belong Take me home, the place where I belong I got no other place to go I have no other place to go Now take me home Now take me home Take me home where I belong Take me home, the place where I belong I got no other place to go I have no other place to go Now take me home Now take me home Take me home where I belong Take me home, the place where I belong I can't take it anymore I can not stand it anymore
But I kept running for a soft place to fall (x4) But I kept running for a sweet place to fall
And I was running far away And I ran away Would I run off the world someday? Would I run away from the world one day?
But now take me home But now take me home Take me home where I belong Take me home, the place where I belong I got no other place to go I have no other place to go (x2)
Now take me home, home where I belong (x4) Take me home, the place where I belong
I can't take it anymore I can not stand it anymore
Runaway, Aurora – Lyrics Genius Lyrics
At that time, I wrote a song that I didn't fully understand, but later turned out to be a very important song that I understand well today. And it makes more and more sense, especially when I'm on tour, and it's very nice. I feel like little Aurora gave old Aurora a gift by writing a song that maybe could come in handy later in life. This song of little Aurora and this period of my life accompany me now and will always remain so on my future travels.
