Song lyrics

Send "Run" ringtones to your cell

I'll sing it one last time for you 
Then we really have to go 
You've been the only thing that's right 
In all I've done 

And I can barely look at you 
But every single time I do 
I know we'll make it any where 
Away from here 

Light up, light up 
As if you have a choice 
Even if you can not hear my voice 
I'll be right beside you dear 

Louder, Louder 
And we'll run for our lives 
I can hardly speak I understand 
Why you can't raise your voice to say 

To think i might not see those eyes 
Makes it so hard not to cry 
And as we say our long goodbyes 
I nearly do 

Light up, light up 
As if you have a choice 
Even if you can not hear my voice 
I'll be right beside you dear 

Louder, Louder 
And we'll run for our lives 
I can hardly speak I understand 
Why you can't raise your voice to say 

Slower, slower 
We don't have time for that 
All I want's to find an easier way 
To get out of our little heads 

Have heart, my dear 
We're bound to be afraid 
Even if its just for a few days 
Making up for all this mess 

Light up, light up 
As if you have a choice 
Even if you can not hear my voice 
I'll be right beside you dear

1 posts	This is really good song. From the moment i heard it!. I think this song is about two people having to leave eachother for sometime and that it is the best thing. But knowing that they will see eachother again they dont lose hope or heart. Tell me what you think, From Shawn.F

31 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal OH MAN... this song is completely amazing... honestly. i can relate to this song on so so so many levels. i am pretty sure that this song is about a break up that had to happen because one of the parties involved had to move away for some reason or another... like they dont want to break up at all, but they just know that its not fair to the other to be in a relationship with someone who lives so far away... no matter how in love you are. they try to think of solutions and ways they can be together but because of this impending distance they know that what has to happen will happen... obviously this doesnt make it any better though. to think i might not see those eyes, makes it so hard not to cry. and as we say our long goodbyes, i nearly do. i love that line because i had one of these relationships (perhaps why im rambling about this amazing song) and it was the longest saddest goodbye of my life... i miss you even though youve moved on...

1 posts	I also love this song. I don't think it's for a long distance relationship or Iraq though. Because he talks about only for a few days. Which means it's for something cooler and more abstract.

107 posts	I think everyone has their own take on the lyrics. I think it's about how they don't get to see each other as often as they like (for whatever reason!) but they'll always be together. Love this song. One of the best on the album by far.

5 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This is possibly the greatest song I have ever heard in my life. I have been listening to this song about 10 times a say for almost this entire year, and I never get tired of it. I can also greatly relate to this song, because I am involved in a long-distance relationship.

1 posts	I LOVE THIS SONG! I think I can help out with my thoughts on its meaning...I recently had to leave and move to another country and leave my boyfriend behind..I dont think the song constitutes as a "break-up" song. But it is about breaking up. Its about knowing how much you love someone and wishing with everything you have that you can stay with them, but the world wont let that happen....its about saying goodbye to something that you dont want to lose. Regardless of the meaning...its beautiful and makes me cry everytime I hear it!!

6 posts	I really love this song I think it could be used as a love song but it was orginally wrote about friends or loved ones leaving to go to war. It verry sad and beautifuly sweet. Dameon

2 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I am totally in love with this song, and as people are saying, they think it might be about a long distance relationship. I think that too, because I am in a long distance relationship myself, and I cry everytime I listen to this song. I hated it when my Honey had to leave.. This reminds me of how I felt.. And I just lose control of my emotions. This song is beautiful, and even though I'm WAY into rock songs, this has moved me from the first time I heard it. I love it, and I am now in love with Snow Patrol. Not all their songs are this depressing, some can even count as rock. Teehee.
