Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Small kid in a small town, lived with his head down

Good luck never came his way

Tragic in the makin', a heart full of achin'

Those thoughts never went away

[PreChorus]

And when all you've known is your own four walls and they get so close

And it hurts 'cause you're so afraid, so afraid

So he kept runnin', ah, runnin', ah, runnin', ah, runnin' away

[Chorus]

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're movin' on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're movin' on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're movin' on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're movin' on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

[Verse 2]

Clean shave and a tie on, he's takin' a ride on

A bus to town in a far-off land

Still stuck in the dirt, there was nothin' but hurt

Too bad that clothes don't make a man

[PreChorus]

And you hold out hope that you might belong

Charlie Brown

[Chorus]

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're movin' on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're movin' on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're movin' on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're movin' on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

[PostChorus]

Oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh, oh-oh

Hold tight, we're movin' on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

Oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh, oh-oh

Hold tight, we're movin' on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

[Bridge]

(You kept) Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)

Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)

Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)

Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)

(You kept) Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)

Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)

Runnin' away, runnin' away (Oh-oh)

Runnin' away

[Chorus]

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're moving on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're moving on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're moving on (Oh, oh, oh-oh)

Keep that dream just a little bit longer (Oh, oh, oh-oh)

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're moving on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer

[Outro]

Hold tight, we're moving on (Oh, oh, oh-oh)

Keep that dream just a little bit longer (Oh, oh, oh-oh)

Charlie Brown

Hold tight, we're moving on

Keep that dream just a little bit longer
