Watch Youngblood Hawke’s ‘We Come Running’ [VIDEO & LYRICS]
'We Come Running' is one of those songs that seems to get better and better every time I hear it.
Want to know who Youngblood Hawke is, and who those kids singing are? Read on.
Youngblood Hawke is made up of Nik Hughes, Alice Katz, Simon Katz, Sam Martin, and Tasso Smith. Sam and Simon were both in the band Iglu & Hartly (Who's song 'In This City' still makes regualr appearances on my iPod.) They joined up with Alice, Nik and Tasso to form Youngblood Hawke, a name they share with a novel by Herman Wouk.
Now, when you listen to the song you hear kids singing in it,those kids are actually from the West Los Angeles Children's Choir. They are all between the ages of 7 and 14 and the group is no stranger to fame, check out the video when these kids sang with Fun. on Conan.
'We Come Running' is also featured in the FIFA 2013 soccer video game soundtrack.
'We Come Running' by Youngblood Hawe - Lyrics:
Under a pale blue sky
You never felt so cold
Another sleepless night
How could you ever let go
How do you recognize
The dirty face of gold
Behind that crooked line
Where you never knew you'd go
Headed for the open door
Tell me what you're waiting for
Look across the great divide
Soon they're gonna hear
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
Never go where we belong
Echoes in the dead of dawn
Soon they're gonna know
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
When the worlds gone quiet
I see you dancing slow
Feeling satisfied
Where you never knew you'd go
Headed for the open door
Tell me what you're waiting for
Look across the great divide
Soon they're gonna hear
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
Never go where we belong
Echoes in the dead of dawn
Soon they're gonna know
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
Days go by
Feeling broke and tired
Remember
Always remember
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
Headed for the open door
Tell me what you're waiting for
Look across the great divide
Soon they're gonna hear
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
Never go where we belong
Echoes in the dead of dawn
Soon they're gonna know
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
The sound, the sound, the sound
When we come running
