Lyrics

Run Away

[Verse 1: Donnie Dacus, with bandmates]

Run away

Leave all your worries behind you

Run away

Run for your life never turn back

Run away

Run from the wrong that surrounds you

Run away

Run like a fool and you just might make it

[Chorus: Peter Cetera< with bandmates]

And soon you will be

Right where you want to be

Free to live the way you want to

Ooh oh yeah

And soon you will find

Just what you're looking for

All the good times you never, never

Good times you never knew

[Verse 2: Donnie Dacus, with bandmates]

Run away

Follow the voice deep inside you

Run away

Follow the sun, find a new life

Run away

Run from the lies that destroy you

Run away

Run like a fool and you just might make it

[Chorus: Peter Cetera< with bandmates]

And soon you will be

Right where you want to be

Free to live the way you want to

Ooh oh yeah

And soon you will find

Just what you're looking for

All the good times you never, never

Good times you never knew

[Outro: All]
