Lyrics Dave Barnes

Dave Barnes

Runs in the Family

Think of our daddy's broken heart

The love that he found there in the dark

'Cause he just passed it down

The same light that his father found

No we all believe

'Cause it runs in the family, in our blood

Every generation in the world yet to come

It runs in the family, in our veins

It's every bit a part of us as our last names

It runs in the family

It runs in the family

There ain't a thing that we can claim

But there go out before the grave

So I'm gonna pass it down

The same light that my father found

And pray you believe

'Cause it runs in the family, in our blood

Every generation in the world yet to come

It runs in the family, in our veins

It's every bit a part of us as our last names

It runs in the family

It runs in the family, in our blood

Every generation in the world yet to come

It runs in the family, in our veins

It's every bit a part of us as our last names

It runs in the family

It runs in the family

It runs in the family

Ooh, it runs in the family

It runs, runs, runs, runs, runs

It runs in the family

Runs in the family, family

It runs in the family

Runs in the family, family

Oh yeah it runs

It runs in the family

Runs in the family, family

It runs in the family

Runs in the family, family

Ooh thank God that it runs

It runs in the family

Runs in the family, family

It runs in the family

Runs in the family, family

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

It runs in the family

Runs in the family, family

Ooh thank God that it runs

It runs in the family

Runs in the family, family

Oh yeah

It runs in the family

Runs in the family, family

Ooh, ooh

It runs in the family

Runs in the family, family
