Adams, Peter Bradley - The Longer I Run Lyrics






When my blood runs warm with the warm red wine
I miss the life that I left behind
But when I hear the sound of the blackbirds cry
I know I left in the nick of time

Well this road I'm on's gonna turn to sand
And leave me lost in a far off land
So let me ride the wind til I don't look back
Forget the life that I almost had

If I wander til I die
May I know who's hand I'm in
If my home I'll never find
And let me live again

The longer I run
Then the less that I find
Sellin my soul for a nickel and dime
Breakin my heart to keep singing these rhymes
And losin again

The longer I run
Then the less that I find
Sellin my soul for a nickel and dime
Breakin my heart to keep singing these rhymes
And losin again

Tell my brother please not to look for me
I ain't the man that I used to be
But if my savior comes could you let him know
I've gone away for to save my soul

If I wander til I die
May I know who's hand I'm in
If my home I'll never find
And let me live again

The longer I run
Then the less that I find
Sellin my soul for a nickel and dime
Breakin my heart to keep singing these rhymes
And losin again

The longer I run
Then the less that I find
Sellin my soul for a nickel and dime
Breakin my heart to keep singing these rhymes
And losin again

Losing again

The longer I run
I'm losing again
Losing again

  9. G.... C....

    Beautiful song

  10. d.... ....

    Why can't this be the stuff on the charts instead of the garbage packaged and marketed to the masses? At least this song has a message and a beautiful melody.

  11. D.... i....

    Very nice

  12. S.... A....

    I keep playing this over and over again....sad but full of hope. music stunning..im a singer songwriter and love to hear what others are doing. With gratitude...thanks, sandiland

  13. L.... R....

    This song makes me think of my brother Mauro who passed away on April 12, 2015.“I miss the life that I left behind, but when I hear the sound of the blackbirds cry, I know I left in the nick of time.Tell my brother please not to look for me, I ain’t the man that I used to be, but if my savior comes could you let him know, I’ve gone away for to save my soul.”

  14. J.... B....

    This song has gotten me through so much. Anyone out there struggling, know that you will one day find your place in this life. Sending my love! Thank you Peter.

  15. M.... G....

    Got this from a clay making video from Instagram 😂😂

    ringrazio aliluvi per il suo video spettacolare dove mi ha fatto conoscere queste canzoni, grazie💕

    A.... B....

    Anche Io! Sono bellissime queste canzoni❤

  23. P.... G....

    one of the best songs that I've ever heard.

  24. K.... B....

    I'm not sure when I found this song, but I'm 23 and I know I found it years ago. I remember when I was trying my best in tech school in 2012 & '13, I'd listen to this mm repeat while doing my schoolwork. It's sad, and beautiful at the same time. Now it's March 17, 2017 & even though I've listened to this from time to time since it's in my library, I've been listening to this song in binge sessions the way I did back then. I know I'll always go back to this song when I need some peace & motivation. It's a great song to meditate to.

    K.... B....

    I think when you got the message of my comment you should listen to this song. Have a good day/night 😊

  25. M.... H....

  51. K.... S....

    This song is beautiful!! Nice melody that keeps in mind, sweet!

    That's classy. Smooth finger work, DADGAD tuning is so fun to play with. The lyrical content sold this song. Soul soothing. Amazing talent.

  53. Q.... I....

    I literally cannot believe it. I've actually been listening to Peter's songs scattered over the last few years, loved them, and yet never found out what the artist is! Finally I found it out! These are great!

  54. M.... G....

    Thanks to Pandora for this guy, Matt Nathanson, Noah Gunderson, and for introducing a bunch of peeps to the amazing Ron Pope, who I have been a fan of for about 15 years

    M.... G....

    Pandora has changed my life

  55. M.... W....

    Sounds just like JJ Heller's "Heaven Stands"

    M.... W....

    or "Stay Alive" by Jose Gonzalez

    M.... W....

    +Mayah W Or Genesis- That's all

  56. D.... B....

    Take a look at my new YouTube channel! I need feedback on some monologues I've done! Thanks:)

    When my blood runs warm with the warm red wine
    I miss the life that I left behind
    But when I hear the sound of the blackbirds cry
    I know I left in the nick of time

    Well this road I'm on's gonna turn to sand
    And leave me lost in a far off land
    So let me ride the wind til I don't look back
    Forget the life that I almost had

    If I wander til I die
    May I know who's hand I'm in
    If my home I'll never find
    And let me live again

    The longer I run
    Then the less that I find
    Sellin my soul for a nickel and dime
    Breakin my heart to keep singing these rhymes
    And losin again

    The longer I run
    Then the less that I find
    Sellin my soul for a nickel and dime
    Breakin my heart to keep singing these rhymes
    And losin again

    Tell my brother please not to look for me
    I ain't the man that I used to be
    But if my savior comes could you let him know
    I've gone away for to save my soul

    If I wander til I die
    May I know who's hand I'm in
    If my home I'll never find
    And let me live again

    The longer I run
    Then the less that I find
    Sellin my soul for a nickel and dime
    Breakin my heart to keep singing these rhymes
    And losin again

    The longer I run
    Then the less that I find
    Sellin my soul for a nickel and dime
    Breakin my heart to keep singing these rhymes
    And losin again

    Losing again

    The longer I run
    I'm losing again
    Losing again

    r.... b....

    Thanks mom

  59. S.... R....

    sounds similar to Sheryl Crow "are you strong enough to be my man" but I like this better

    S.... R....

    +Spencer Read Thanks man. Heard this song, and I could hear Sheryl's song in my head, but I didn't know the name of it. You helped me find it.

  60. J.... v....

    Sounds very similar to the Stable Song by Gregory Alan Isakov; an artist you should definitely be checking out if you like this guy! :)

    J.... v....

    @marilynn nesheiwat https://youtu.be/ATFAFZI5tuA here's a live version that's one of my favourites as well if you haven't heard it.

    J.... v....

    Met this beautiful man in St. Augustine. Fl
    I love his music!!

    J.... v....

    @dirtyjew1974 beautiful! Thank you for sharing

    J.... v....

    Try Maximillian Hecker 💕

    J.... v....

    Joost van Kommer Gregory is my favorite artist !!!

  69. E.... F....

    I love this!

  70. I.... M....

    can someone help me find the lyrics

  71. A.... ....

    Pandora brought me to such treasures.

  72. M.... L....

    great stuff

  73. d.... b....

    Love this music, also discovered this guy on pandora.  but the most puzzling lyrics of this song, "But if my savior comes could you let him know
    I've gone away for to save my soul."

    d.... b....

    His Saviour and his wife/soul. He's not yet ready for heaven
    Not comfortable in his skin on earth without his own wife, walking with him through life.

    d.... b....

    We are our own saviors. We have been conditioned to wait for someone to save us when indeed we are all infinitely powerful beings. Perhaps the greatest of these powers we contain is Love.

    d.... b....

    Collin Pople love is my higher power.

    d.... b....

    Good job David, you heard the lies this guy is singing about in the midst of his captivating instrumentals and because we don't want to believe that's what he means ppl are trying to defend this line he used about saving his own soul. This is pagan idolatry and you beat me to posting about it. Be careful what you listen to Christian. Ephesians 2:8-9

    d.... b....

    Chad Haboush fuckin really, dude? Thanks for the laugh.

  74. L.... S....

    This is perfect, its the theme song to me running away to an out of state college next year. <3

  75. A.... T....

    fantastic song !!!!

  76. E.... H....

    Peace of mind .....loving it right now reminds me of my brothers that never came back from the sand box i love and miss you guys

  77. A.... M....

    Found this song on Trevor Hall pandora. Awesome. 

  78. j.... ....

    I remember this song in the rooftop love scene in the movie "Something Borrowed"

  79. O.... J....

  80. V.... V....

    This was our song in Sangin in 2010 Rah

  81. r.... r....

    theres this sweet sadness to this song. like you see the life you once had slowly slip through your fingers and you are walking in this unknown. forgetting what youve known to dance with the wind.

  82. J.... L....

    I love his music.

  83. K.... E....

    the vineyard brought me here

  84. J.... W....

    hits me like a freight train... full of daises and autumn breeze.

  85. P.... B....

    Hits me like a freight train too!

  86. h.... d....

  87. J.... W....

  91. D.... B....

    If ever lucky enough to have this incredible singer song writer perform at a spot near you travel & pay the tiny cost. what ya hear is what you get! To your mind & soul..will be worth a fortune.

  92. A.... S....

    Something Borrowed sent me here, this is going to be the 1st dance song at my upcoming wedding... I love it so much.

  93. p.... ....

    If this does not stir your blood and jumpstart your heart, ... ask a friend to take your pulse.

  94. M.... G....
