[Verse 1]
Ran out of things to call me
Things to accuse me of
Ran around the world with you by my side
Never ran out of love
[Chorus]
Run scared, run a risk
Run a Proust, run a Faust
Run a mount in the middle of a drought
I ain't never seen 'em run like they ran for my baby
Run like hell because our luck runs out
[Verse 2]
Ran the foot off a rabbit
All the dice I done threw
Kept my mojo hands in a pocket by my heart
Oh, girl, I couldn’t keep you
[Chorus]
Run scared, run a risk
Run a Proust, run a Faust
Run a mount in the middle of a drought
I ain't never seen 'em run like they ran for my baby
Run like hell because our luck runs out
[Verse 3]
But I did my very best
No rеgrets, it's how I feel
And you walked all over mе so much, baby
Good lord, you must’ve bruised your heel
If I were twice the man I am
It still wouldn’t be enough
'Cause you’re so insecure and I tried to secure ya
I’m afraid I went and lost myself
[Chorus]
Run scared, run a risk
Run a Proust, run a Faust
Run a mount in the middle of a drought
I ain't never seen 'em run like they ran for my baby
Run like hell because our luck runs out
Had to fight, had to fuss
Had to force you to love me
Run away because our luck runs out
[Verse 4]
Next time I’m walking through your city
And we pass by each other on the street
Do you remember those times I used to hold you so tight, girl
And talk to you while you sleep
We found each other cross an ocean
Now our eyes don’t even meet
You used to sing, sing, sing, sing, sing for me all night, oh
Now we can't even speak
We promised each other forever
What was all that stuff about?
Is that what its like when lovers turn to strangers
When their luck runs out
