You Keep Runnin' Away

[Verse 1]

I hear your high-heels clickin' down the boulevard

You got your suitcase in hand, guess you're takin' it hard

You swear you'll never trust another man

Ah, but I know that you will, it's just a question of when

[Pre-Chorus]

So open up your eyes to the light

You've been far too alone for too many nights, oh

[Chorus]

Someday, someway, somewhere, love is gonna find you

Somehow, someone is gonna beg you to stay

But you keep on runnin', you keep runnin'

You keep on runnin' away, ooh

[Verse 2]

I hear it whispered in the neighborhood

At one time, you were the best, it was just understood

Then someone came and took you for a fool

The word is out on the street that love is looking for you

[Pre-Chorus]

So open up your eyes to the light

You've been far too alone for too many nights, oh

[Chorus]

Someday, someway, somewhere, love is gonna find you

Somehow, somewhere, don't look now, I'm comin' up behind you

But you keep runnin', you keep runnin'

You keep on runnin' away

Yes, you do, baby

[Bridge]

So don't be fooled, you got me comin'

I ain't no fool, you keep me runnin'

And I don't know why

No, I don't know why

So open up, don't be afraid, baby

Is there someone standin' in our way

Won't you tell me why

Don't you tell me goodbye, oh

[Chorus]

Someday, someway, somewhere, love is gonna find you

Somehow, someone is gonna beg you to stay, baby

Somehow, somewhere, don't look now, I'm comin' up behind you

But you keep runnin', you keep runnin'

You keep on runnin' away

But you keep on runnin', you keep runnin'

You keep on runnin' away

But you keep on runnin', you keep runnin'

You keep on runnin' away

[Outro]

But you keep on runnin', you keep runnin' away

But you keep on runnin', you keep runnin' away

But you keep on runnin', you keep runnin' away

But you keep on runnin', you keep runnin' away
