On the Run - Electric Light Orchestra

whatever I do, wherever I go the same afterglow

is keepin’me low

don’t wanna lose it but don’t wanna stay here too long

they see you go by

I tell you no lie

you’re up in the sky

make everyone cry

don’t wanna lose it but don’t wanna stay around here

I’m on the run again

I’m on the run again

but it’s like what they say

when it happens this way

you gotta do it again and again

I hear them talkin’and they go on and on they think that nothing is wrong

and so they just carry on about you

don’t wanna lose it but I gotta move out of here

I see them waiting there for most of the day

I known you asked them to stay

but they just won’t go away

don’t wanna lose it but I gotta do it again

Bridge

I know it ain’t real

but when you are near

you’re saying the things

that I wanna hear

don’t wanna lose it but I gotta do it again
