RUNNING
We had a love that set the night on fire
Tight as a drum as strong as fencing wire
Two hearts beating with one desire
Then the dark and rolling storm clouds came
Black as night they dropped their cold hard rain
I sought the shelter of your love in vain
CH:
Then you’d start running far away
You’d start running far away
And you’ll keep running till the day
You wake up to yourself and wonder why you’re all alone
I took a greyhound bus to Birmingham
I took my AWOL lover by the hand
I told him I’d be standing by my man
CH:
Then you’d start running far away
You’d start running far away
And you’ll keep running till the day
You wake up to yourself and wonder why you’re all alone
We had a love that set the night on fire
Tight as a drum as strong as fencing wire
Two hearts beating with one desire
CH:
Then you’d start running far away
You’d start running far away
You’d start running far away
You’d start running far away
You’d start running far away
And you’ll keep running till the day
You wake up to yourself and wonder why you’re all alone
