[Verse 1] You wait where the pine trees thin Dark coat brushed by the morning wind Your ears turn first to the far-off road You know every path that I have known [Pre-Chorus] When the hills turn blue and the day runs long You stay beside me, steady and strong [Chorus] Run with me, faithful heart Over the ridge where the wild fields start No matter how far the trail may bend You are my shelter, my oldest friend Run with me, clear and free The whole wide world feels close with you by me [Verse 2] There’s dust on your paws and rain on your fur You look up once, and the doubts all stir Then settle down like leaves in the stream You bring me back to the things I mean [Pre-Chorus] When the hills turn blue and the day runs long You stay beside me, steady and strong [Chorus] Run with me, faithful heart Over the ridge where the wild fields start No matter how far the trail may bend You are my shelter, my oldest friend Run with me, clear and free The whole wide world feels close with you by me [Bridge] If winter closes every gate We’ll take the narrow path and wait One warm breath, one pawstep near And I can face the open year [Final Chorus] Run with me, faithful heart Over the ridge where the wild fields start No matter how far the trail may bend You are my shelter, my oldest friend Run with me, clear and free The whole wide world feels close with you by me [Outro] You wait where the pine trees thin And I come home to you again
