Vampire Weekend - Run Lyrics






Every dollar counts
And every morning hurts
We mostly work to live
Until we live to work

She said,
“You know
There’s nowhere else to go”
But changing roles
It struck me that the two of us could run

Worlds away from cars
And all the stars and bars
Where a little bit of condensation means so much
And a little bit of change is all your little fingers touch

I said,
“You know
There’s nowhere else to go”
But changing roles
It struck me that the two of us could run

Honey, with you
Is the only honest way to go
And I could take two
But I really couldn’t ever know

Honey, with you
And a little battered radio

We could try

So lead my feet away
Cuz all they’ll do is stay
And I don’t think your eyes
Have ever looked surprised

She said,
“You know
There’s nowhere left to go”
But with her fund
It struck me that the two of us could run

Honey, with you
Is the only honest way to go
And I could take two
But I really couldn’t ever know

Honey, with you
And a battin radio

We could try

  7. H.... B....

    I used go jam to my freshman year of high school when the album dropped. Vampire Weekend made all my bus rides to and from school so much better.

  8. T.... L....

    Fuck all youse who say they like VW when all you've heard is run and a-punk bcz there are so many other amazing songs

  9. J.... 1....

    J.... 1....

    Y’all heard it at an Old Navy? I’m here because some hipster friends made me listen to everything Vampire Weekend’s ever made during my first week of college at music school.
    Honestly a good listen, though.

    one that was watching it.) and i heard ezra’s voice and i felt like i was being called home by the mothership, y’know?

  12. A.... I....

    This song is verging in good. I like the melody and I thought it had a nice uplifting tone, but it dragged pretty long. 3.5/5

  13. V.... L....

    Everybody's here from The Kissing Booth..... That's sad.

    V.... L....

    But changing roles, it struck me that the two of us could run

    'Cause, honey, with you-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Is the only honest way to go
    And I could take two-ooh-ooh-ooh
    But I really couldn't ever know
    Honey, with you-ooh-ooh-ooh
    And a little bata radio
    We could try

    So lead my feet away, 'cause all they do is stay

    'Cause, honey, with you-ooh-ooh-ooh

    And I could take two-ooh-ooh-ooh
    If I really couldn't ever know
    Honey, with you-ooh-ooh-ooh
    And a battered radio
    We could try, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

    Okay now I'm so glad I didn't watch kissing booth, because I adore this song and it completely would have ruined it for me, since I don't want to associate this song with some Netflix Highschool Drama...

  28. E.... C....

    I listen to this when I was 3 now I'm 13

    E.... C....

    This album released in 2010...

    E.... C....

    This song isnt that old so your a liar

  29. d.... h....

    For me it was Pandora and just going down the Vampire Weekend youtube rabbit hole. Never seen Kissing Booth.

  30. T.... T....

  31. S.... C....

  42. M.... W....

    Kissing Booth but I did hear this song when it came out and Vampire Weekend was the flavor of the month. I like the album cover. The preppy girl---no doubt vampires find them delicious.

    M.... W....

    Actually, apparently it’s a random, unplanned shot of a hair model from the ‘80s that she had no idea existed until her daughter bought the CD. If you ever want to read about a really interesting copyright case, google the name “Ann Kirsten Kennis”.

  43. C.... F....

    The Kissing Booth 😍😍😍

  44. O.... T....

    Instrumental sounds like something from a videogame

    O.... T....

    But in an f'in gud way!!!!!

  46. A.... H....

    So many normies literally only know this song from the kissing booth

    A.... H....

    For me it came on pandora in "The Drums" station. Soon after I headed straight to youtube and began jamming to this. All their songs are amazing.

    A.... H....

    Yeah sorry for liking the song

    A.... H....

    Yeah, I was projecting these into existance in the womb 🤷‍♂️

    A.... H....

    Who cares as long as they find VW

    A.... H....

    T.... W....

    Who’s here from the fact that it’s a really good song from a legitimately great album from one of the best bands of the last decade?

    T.... W....

    Me. This is my favorite Vampire Weekend song. I’ve never even watched the kissing booth

    T.... W....

    What is that?

  62. m.... ....

    This album takes me back to such a painful place but the music is so beautiful that I have no choice but to go back there and groove on it

    m.... ....

    mchap94837 i relate to that so much. there are so many songs i love so much but they bring back lots of hard times

    m.... ....

    Yeah i have a couple albums that take me to some dark times too like Foster the People’s Supermodel and Panic!’s Too Weird/Too Rare, but sometimes the albums that remind us of hard times are the most beautiful in our library

    m.... ....

    Yeah i have a couple albums that take me to some dark times too like Foster the People’s Supermodel and Panic!’s Too Weird/Too Rare, but sometimes the albums that remind us of hard times are the most beautiful in our library

  63. M.... R....

    The Kissing booth

    M.... R....

    Montse Reyes fuck off

    M.... R....

    Please leave your trashy chick flix somewhere else and give vampire weekend some recognition

    M.... R....

    The Haunting Of Sunshine Girl.

    M.... R....

    N-n-n-n-normies

  64. S.... K....

    This song reminds me of my ex she treated me so badly, she ruined my life but I still love her...

    S.... K....

    This song makes me want another glass of cheap white wine, or fireball shooters

    w.... ....

    wildmercuryfilms same

  66. C.... B....

    The synths at the end 💯

  67. C.... G....

    I can't believe this didn't chart

    C.... G....

    it might, it just needs good advertising, but I know what you mean, actual artistic material will never be big hits

    C.... G....

    Its no good if it aint burnin up the charts babe........jk

    C.... G....

    Yes, but it is also our delightful little secret, and it is something of a joy that listeners of top 40 music and listeners of such little treasures as this rarely mix!

    C.... G....

    pippinhart right !!!!😊😊

    C.... G....

    @Sergeant Kipling Its recognized by critics though ;)

  68. R.... J....

    a lyric that's always stuck out to me is "we mostly work to live, until we live to work." becuase it's so fucking true.

    R.... J....

    Ive never even heard that until now.

    R.... J....

    Me too! That's my favorite line from this song.
