Last night you took me back to the streets
Where we grew up
Where we learned to run
Pavement burning hot under our feet
We ran from the shadows
Of our unborn daughters and sons

Oh, last night
You took me back to the streets
Oh, to the streets

Last night you took me back to the fields
Where we grew up
Where we learned to run
The blisters on our soles
Would crack, and eventually heal
We ran from the scarecrows
Of our ancestors

Oh, last night
You took me back to the fields
Oh, you took me back to the fields

The fields and the streets
Run long where we're from
We were chasing the sun

Last night you took me back to my innermost memories
To our childhood coulisse
I don't know about you
But my hunger is still real
I still chase you in my dreams

Every night we were running
Through our childhood coulisse

You stopped running years ago
I still got many miles to go

Every night we were running
Through our childhood coulisse

Oh, last night
You took me back to the streets
Oh, last night
You took me back to the fields
Every night we're still running
Running through our childhood coulisse
Oh, every night
You take me back to the streets
