And you said you didn't care about distance
That being miles apart didn't make any difference
I told you I was slow and you thought that it was fun
And I said: "well, I'd rather walk than run"
And if one day I make it back to my homeland
If people know the songs that I wrote for my band
Well, I'll buy new shoes for my daughter and a house for my mum
But you know I'd rather walk than run
And you told me not to take the long way home nightly
You told me: "David, you shouldn't take it lightly
You could get chased by some crook or even mugged by a bum
And I was like: "Mum, I'd rather walk than run"
And it is crazy to thing how mad I made you
And it's weird to think how bad now I miss you
Like when you stood there awaiting for me in the early morning sun
And I was like: "I'd rather walk than run"
And now the aching in my heart amuse me
And memories of you confuse me
But if I have to rush to get you back, I will go alone
And you know I'd rather walk than run
Well you know I'd rather walk than run
