Long Distance Runner Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Daniel wants that he could make it better
He's sleeping with the light on once again
Says, "I don't wanna live my life in the coma of the night'
Daniel lifts his head and says hello
But she floats like the future to her t-shirt
She knows this isn't really one on one
Gotta go and live her life, that's the only storyline
Ally makes the bed and says goodbye

[Chorus]
Long-distance runner
Coming home by the dark of night
One dance for another
Not a man of the modern times
I keep, keep, keep coming
Be a lover of the lasting light
One chance or another
One roll of the dancing die
And I will see you there
Angelo Fair

[Verse 3]
If it's okay, I love you, don't go
But I can't tell you things that you don't already know
Like the turning tide or the corners of your mind
But, Daniel, close your eyes and see the rising sun
[Chorus]
Long-distance runner
Coming home by the dark of night
One dance for another
Not a man of the modern times
I keep, keep, keep coming
Be a lover of the lasting light
One chance or another
One roll of the dancing die
And I will see you there
Angelo Fair

[Verse 4]
It's okay, I've been here before
I know this and I will forevermore
Go ahead and live your life across the border if you like
But, Ally, close your eyes and see the sun will rise

[Chorus]
Long-distance runner
Coming home by the dark of night
Step, step, and another
Not a man of the modern times
I keep, keep, keep coming
Be a lover of the lasting light
One chance or another
One roll of the dancing die
And I will see you there
Angelo Fair
Angelo Fair
Angelo Fair
Angelo Fair

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
