Blue Eyed Runner

Look there he goes running home, to the Hume
Sydney road
Don’t go and get your hopes up kid, Lone Ranger
Chase the sun
Cowboy Cactus Granny flat, talking to the birds kicking out back
Satisfied bungalow, up on a hill, all alone maroon throne
Blue eyed runner strikes again, tippy toe the stable edge
Blue eyed runner strikes again, the plot it is thickening
Can’t determine anything
Repeating weeks before, better hang up, long distance phone call
Recognising similarities, same old mad, qualities
Opposites attract then match, doesn’t mean stay intact
Copycat through this rough patch to be noticed, to share a bond that never lasts
Blue eyed runner strikes again, tippy toe the stable edge
Blue eyed runner strikes again, the plot it is thickening
Blue eyed runner says he cares, finally seems interested
Just to have a connection
I was lacking something
Never felt the urge
I was lacking something
Till it started turn
I was lacking something
For better or worse
I was lacking something
Now it’s all a blur
Blue eyed runner, strikes again
Yeah I look like my mother
Blue eyed runner, strikes again
Yeah I look like my mother
Blue eyed runner, strikes again
Yeah I look like my mother
Blue eyed runner, we’re so similar
