lyrics

Once again you tell me life is short and we should make better use of our time
Your head is way up in the clouds, but somehow you can’t make your feet leave the ground
As a kid you used to make plans to run away from home
You’ve grown up but you still got your dreams
I know you’re stuck and you’re paralyzed
I know you’re stuck and you’re paralyzed
But let’s face it, woman
This can’t go on forever

Now you can hide in the shadows or wish upon a star
Or you can run, sister, just run run run
You can sleep your days away, wait for someone to change your life
Run, sister, run run
It’s getting late, it’s getting late
But you can still make it if you run
You can still make it if you run
Yeah you can still make it if you run

Once again you tell me you hate your life
You hate your job and sometimes you hate your wife
What happened to all those magic scenes
Wild nights and even wilder dreams
Well, you say that some day you’ll make a change
Are you gonna wait for the rest of your life?
I know you’re stuck and you’re paralyzed
I know you’re stuck and you’re paralyzed
But let’s face it, man
This can’t go on forever

Now you can wait for better weather or hide in your leather
Wait another day or just run run run
You can sleep your days away, wait for someone to change your life
Run, I say, run run run
It’s getting late, it’s getting late
But you can still make it if you run
You can still make it if you run
Yeah you can still make it if you run
