Lyrics

Coming, Going, Running Away

You've been drinking your quiet dismay,
I've been thinking I've something to say,
I need to know at the end of the day,
Are you coming, are you going, are you running away

You've had a problem for quite a long time,
The words in your head and your heart just don't rhyme,
I pray your sorrow won't lead you astray,
Are you coming, are you going, are you running away

I learned the secret as quite a small child,
To see the tears in your heart, and your fears running wild,
I need an answer, so I know you're OK,
Are you coming, are you going, are you running away

You've long been my sorrow, it ages like wine,
There's nothing you've done that's breaking my mind,
But seeking your joy, and your joy is so hard to find

You've love in your life, and goodness in your soul,
There'll be peace in your heart before you grow old
But every blue sky seems to fade into gray,
Are you coming, are you going, are you running away

You've long been my sorrow, it ages like wine,
There's nothing you've done that's breaking my mind,
But seeking your joy, your joy is so hard to find

You've love in your life, and goodness in your soul,
There'll be peace in your heart before you grow old,
'Cause every blue sky can't fade into gray,
Are you coming, are you going, are you running away
