I'd Rather Walk Than Run Lyrics

Herman Dune 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 think 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
