In Places on the Run Lyrics

All alone in bridge of silence
I suppose you shouldn't stay,
all alone in dream's asylum
Don't you know we've come a long way...

I suppose we were
Somewhere in the sun
We walked in coloured fields
In places on the run.
What a dream I had
Dressed in coloured shawls
Though the night was so warm
And a nightingale
Sat on a castle wall
While the river ran on
Calling- hearing you call
The river ran on
Running-
The river ran on.
It felt as if we were
In places yet unknown
We walked through the bazars
In places on the run
What a dream I had
Walking by the wall
Oh the raiment and all
The stars that flickered by
Soon to be replaced
If I asked them they'd fall
Calling- hearing you call
The river ran on
Running -
The river ran on.
What a dream I had
Dressed in coloured shawls
Though the night was so warm,
And in the darkness I
Tried to take your hand
But it was nothing at all.
Nothing at all
The river ran on
Nothing at all.
The river ran on.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
