Jon Bon Jovi - Stand Up Guys interview + Not Running Anymore lyrics
Jon Bon Jovi talks about his contribution to Stand Up Guys in this Roadside Attractions featurette. Check it out (via The Hollywood Reporter).
Jon's song Not Running Anymore has been nominated for Best Original Song at the Golden Globes. I never posted lyrics for it so I thought I'd give it a crack now (Corrections welcome):
Bless me, Father, I have sinned
I'm not sure where to begin
I won't name names or where I've been
But I've been there and back again
No Hail Marys will save me
You learn to live with memories
Here, slip this C-note up your sleeve
Just stay inside until I leave
I've been running
Always running
Never had both feet on the floor
But I've been running
Always running
Now I ain't running anymore
The hands of time may tick no more
Let darkness fall upon this door
No waves to wash up on this shore
I won the fight but lost the war
I've been running
Always running
Never had both feet on the floor
I've been running
Always running
Now I ain't running anymore
Yeah, there were those who I have loved
Who'd given all and given up
I pushed your patience and my luck
It wasn't love I didn't trust
It wasn't you or me or us
You've shouldered ifs and ands and buts
It's not that way, okay, I've said too much
But I've been running
Always running
Never had both feet on the floor
But I've been running
Always running
Now I ain't running anymore
