[Lyric] Hit the Ground Runnin (Maura O'Connell)

[Verse 1]
The clock is ticking
Something is left undone
See my face changing
Vanishing before my eyes
Cuckoo sings her song
Two notes and she's gone

[Chorus]
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
There is no sadder song
Than that one song we leave unsung

[Verse 2]
Have I been dreaming?
Sleepwalking out of step
Feel the earth turning
Sighing to catch its breath
Sun comes spilling down
Hammer hits the nail
[Chorus]
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
There is no sweeter song
Than that one song yet to be sung

[Verse 3]
Reaper is grinning
Gripping the hands of timе
Pale moon is pulling
Kisses the dancing tidе
Scarecrow bites his tongue
Leans against the wind

[Chorus]
Oh, hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
