Jo

[Verse 1]

Heard a shout and someone calling

Strained in darkness

Vapour, like a veil, hangs over

The city tonight

[Verse 2]

Hanging there behind the trees

A blood-red moon is watching

I was waiting for you

Dread in my heart

[Verse 3]

Where the wind sings by the river

Laughing, broken

Hair swept out into the water

Ripples of black

[Refrain]

Run, you better run

You better run for your life

[Chorus]

Oh, it rips through the sky

Oh, a light flickers on

Jo, I know you would say

“Don’t wait for me now”

[Post-Chorus]

Shiver while you’re breathe in

Hold on while you breathe loud

I see the dawn

Shiver while you breathe in

Hold on while I breath loud

[Verse 4]

Filigree of time demeaning

Sunset, spoken

Where the wind sings by the river

Ripples of black

[Refrain]

Days, you gotta run

You gotta run for your life

Run, you better run

You better run for your life

Days, you gotta run

You gotta run for your life

Run, you better run

You better run for your life

Days, you gotta run

You gotta run for your life

Run, you better run

You better run for your life

[Chorus]

Oh, you live 'til you breathe

Don’t run with me

Breathe your life while you wait

Don’t wait for me now
