Paroles de la chanson Danny par Ye Vagabonds

On your marks, get ready
Our toes against the line
When the whistle blew
I knew that I'd been left behind
I hammered on the tarmac
My face was turning red
There was no catching Danny
He was half a mile ahead

I wished I could be like him
Burning brighter than the rest
I had no idea how he'd learned to move so fast

He ran like he could feel something snapping at the heels
Of his worn-out shoes
Too fast to follow
Too hot to hold
Too good to lose

At sixteen, he dropped out
Soon after, he left home
If he couldn't make them happy
He'd be better off alone
Had ways to make some money
Dealing on the sly
I could have talked him out of it
But I never even tried

No fear of repercussions
He'd only crack a grin
He'd outrun his shadow before they'd catch up with him

He ran like he could feel something snapping at the heels
Of his worn-out shoes
Too fast to follow
Too hot to hold
Too good to lose

The last time I saw Danny
Was at a lock-in late one night
Smoking in a corner
His face and shoulders tight
His girlfriend hit the needle
Sometime back in July
You could see that she was fadin'
By the shadows round his eyes

It was strange to hear him talk
Until his cheeks were wet
Did he already know it was the last chance he might get?
And later that same year
In the early winter time
Danny broke the record when he crossed the finish line

He ran like he could feel something snapping at the heels
Of his worn-out shoes
Too fast to follow
Too hot to hold
Too good to lose
