Hey, my friend
You can't run away from time
They say you can't fight fate
Time won't wait
You can't run away from time
.
And time is the avenger
But why should we just surrender to it?
Why go through it?
.
Run run run run run run run away
Let's run away from time
Run run run run run run run away
.
Girl, you and me
We've got to set ourselves free this time
We must try to escape because it's never too late
Liberation is ours to find
.
Hey, hey let's run away
Let's run away from time
Hey, hey let's run away
.
Hey, girl
Let's run away from time
We've still got mountains to climb
A day at a time
It's never too late, so why should we wait?
.
Take me
Save me
Maybe, baby
Run run run away
Run run run away
Run run run away
.
The world is too obsessed by the counting[?] requests
For the fountain of youth they will never find
And time is the avenger
But why should we just surrender to it?
Why go through it?
.
Run run run run run run run away
Let's run away from time
Run run run run run run run away
Run run run away
Run run run away
.
Run run run away
Run run run away
.
