about

The eighth track of my 13-song Composer album. Here, I had my father say everything I wanted from him, that he was proud of me. Though the lyrics are mine, they came from his personality, perspective.

T. Nathan Roane - Composer - 08 - Quick to Run

lyrics

My, my, oh my, you're quick to run, quick to hide, quick to jump, quick to glide, quick to… quick to race off and go and find new places to race off to. Never put your feet down, son, or they'll up and run on off of you.

Oh, my, my, you're quick to cover, quick to turn and toss and spin and juggle, quick to… quick to find your own path in this here jungle. Make no mistake, you've found a fine path to follow. It just ain't used much anymore so be careful you don't trip up and loose your marbles. Never can be too sure how the path you choose will look tomorrow.

Skippin' on down, take the back road, you're gonna find it in your own way, or you can take it on up by the high road, 'till you find yourself just runnin' with the grain. Either way you run it, son, you're gonna find it just the same.

You've done well, son, you make me proud, make me smile, put a grin on a face that just doesn't smile so much anymore, doesn't see the light of grace so much anymore. But when I get to see you run, it makes me wonder what else I could do. Maybe one of these days I'll get it in me to take off chasin' after you.
