Verse
Lace up tight, we run the block
Your stride's a beat I try to clock
You don't move this fast on two feet alone
I'm running to keep your shadow in tow
Concrete hums beneath our soles
The city gives its rhythm, makes us whole
You turn down an alleyway so narrow
Tell me you'll wait for me at the last bend
I'm trying not to watch but I don't understand how
You move like a runner in the dark of dawn
Your shadow disappears into thin air
Leave me with the dust and the city's noise
But your smile keeps glowing long after we're gone
Chorus
You don't move this fast, you don't move at all
Running just to catch up to you, it's never enough
You don't move this fast, but I'd chase you down
Into every alleyway, into the night and out of town
Verse
Neon flickers on your skin so bright
Every step behind you feels like a fight
Sweat drips off my chin onto the ground
I ask if you hear the sound that's moving round
Your eyes sparkle in the amber haze
You whisper to come closer, don't be late
You take another stride and I feel the ground pull loose
Like I'm the one who's floating while you're grounded on two feet so strong
Pre-Chorus
Maybe running isn't how it's done
Maybe this is just what we've become
You keep the rhythm, let me follow behind
Chorus
You don't move this fast, you don't move at all
Running just to catch up to you, it's never enough
You don't move this fast, but I'd chase you down
Into every alleyway, into the night and out of town
Bridge
What if I traded speed for your stride
Traded running wild for walking side by side
Maybe that's faster than I've ever been
Maybe this is how we start to win
Chorus
You don't move this fast, you don't move at all
Running just to catch up to you, it's never enough
You don't move this fast, but I'd chase you down
Into every alleyway, into the night and out of town
