Lyrics
Run, run, run for the roses
The quicker it opens, the sooner it closes
Man, oh, man, oh friend of mine
All good things in all good time
Reach for the sun, catch hold of the moon
They're both too heavy but what can you do?
Reach for the stars, smack into the sky
You don't want to live but you're chicken to die
Oh, you're chicken to die
Run, run, run for the roses
The quicker it opens, the sooner it closes
Man, oh, man, oh friend of mine
All good things in all good time
Run for the money, caught short on the rent
Big ideas but the cash is all spent
The trouble with love is its other face
You just want the cup, but you don't want the race
No, you don't want the race
Run, run, run for the roses
The bigger it opens, the sooner it closes
Man, oh, man, oh friend of mine
All good things in all good time
Reach for the rose, get caught on the briar
You're warming to love, next thing there's a fire
If you got the do-re, I got the mi
And I got a notion we're all at sea
Yeah, we're all at sea
Run, run, run for the roses
The quicker it opens, the sooner it closes
Man, oh, man, oh friend of mine
All good things in all good time
