Edwyn Collins - Running Away with Myself lyrics

I'm going back to my school I'm going back to my old school 'Cause to tell you the truth Move this old fool I'm going back to my suit I'm going back to my old suit Though I'm somewhat dismayed 'Cause the cuffs they are frayed Still it's my best suit And I woke with a start And remembered in part A dream that I'd chased That I've since laid to waste Has the love that I'd craved Somehow got mislaid along the way? Am I still okay? I'm running away with myself Am I still okay? I'm running away with myself I'm going back to my youth I'm going back to my wild youth Though our trousers were wide We had soul, we had side Ain't I the living proof? I'm going back to my roots I'm going back to my gra** roots 'Cause it's time to re-group Before spring-heeled we'll shoot on the good foot And I woke with a start And remembered in part A dream that I had back when I was a lad And the key that I los To my memory box that got locked away Am I still okay? I'm running away with myself Am I still okay? I'm running away with myself
