On The Run

[Verse 1] I lit a burning log Left food out for the dogs and tiptoed down I put my shoes on by the door Those creakin' wooden boards didn't make a sound [Pre-Chorus] I'll be thinkin' of you, love I'll be missin' your sweet touch But I've got far to go [Chorus] 'Cause I'm on the run I've been standin' still for way too long I wanna live like I'm forever young Tryna hold it down just ain't no fun I'll pack a bag and leave before the sun And I'll take the long windin' roads And when they call, blame it on rock and roll Start again, forget the things I've done If they ask you where I've gone, I'm on the run (I'm on the run, I'm on the run) [Verse 2] You've been a little lost Workin' round the clock toein' the line You're in a world you don't belong Tryna find your way back home But you could stay a while on the passenger side There's books to read and songs to write If you wanna leave this town I could turn the car around You could say your goodbyes Get outta here tonight [Chorus] Come on the run 'Cause you've been standin' still for way too long Life's too short to not live while you're young Tryna hold it down just ain't no fun Let's pack a bag and leave before the sun And we'll take the long windin' roads And drive up to the lochs I used to know You can buy a postcard, write it to your mum Sayin' you miss her, but for now, you're on the run (I'm on the run) [Outro] Try to hold me down, oh, I'll go on the run (Go on the run) Let's leave this town tonight, come on the run (Come on the run) We could spend our lives on the run
