Lyrics
[Verse 1] You drew a compass on the back of your hand Pointed north where the tall grass bends We left the highway for a narrow trail With a paper moon and a rust-red rail [Pre-Chorus] Every mile put a little more sky Between the questions and the reasons why [Chorus] Run with me past the county line Let the wild turn the ordinary bright If we lose the map, we’ll make our own Two small sparks in a wide unknown Run with me, don’t count the years Carry your wonder, leave your fear There’s a whole blue world to find And i want your footsteps next to mine [Verse 2] At the river bend, we watched a heron rise Silver wings cutting through the afternoon light You laughed when the bridge shook under our feet Then sang a harmony nobody could keep [Pre-Chorus] Every mile put a little more sky Between the questions and the reasons why [Chorus] Run with me past the county line Let the wild turn the ordinary bright If we lose the map, we’ll make our own Two small sparks in a wide unknown Run with me, don’t count the years Carry your wonder, leave your fear There’s a whole blue world to find And i want your footsteps next to mine [Bridge] When the hills rise high, we’ll take them slow When the trail goes dark, we’ll still know A heart can be a lantern, a hand can be a guide There’s more than one horizon waiting on the other side [Final chorus] Run with me past the county line Let the wild turn the ordinary bright If we lose the map, we’ll make our own Two small sparks in a wide unknown Run with me, don’t count the years Carry your wonder, leave your fear There’s a whole blue world to find And i want your footsteps next to mine [Outro] Your footsteps next to mine Your footsteps next to mine
