Running Joke lyrics

When I was a little boy

I looked under the stairs

The king and the pawns

Were caught unawares

Standing in the shadows

A whisperer to be

Just fishing in the darkness

Of possibilities

Just

Look

At you now

Yeah

Look at you now

Yeah

Oh

Look at you now

Among such style and grace

Our highest hopes

None standing still

The running joke

Where goes the warm embrace it fades

Without return

That lives to slip through fingertips and burn

Just

Look

At you now

Oh

Look at you now

Oh

Look at you now

Oh

Look at you now
