Lyrics
Running
M.Louise/R.Brough
V1
He blew into town with a winter wind, Hanging on to the past and a bottle of gin,
With his hat pulled down and his coat drawn tight, He went to a motel to get a room for the night.
Pre-chorus A:
His thoughts roll back, another place, another time, so many years ago
and the cruel memories remind him,
Chorus 1:
He hasn?t always been a drifter, moving place to place,
He only feels the need to run, when the past shows its face?
V2
He goes into his room and locks the door, He throws his life in a bag down on the floor,
Walking to the window to draw the shade, He thinks about his life and the mess that he?s made?
Pre-chorus B:
His thoughts roll back, another place, another time, so many years ago
and the cruel memories remind him,
Chorus 2:
He has about a hundred names, it changes each new town, he only feels the need to run, when the past tracks him down?.
Guitar Solo
Pre-chorus C:
His thoughts roll back, another place, another life, such a long time ago
and the cruel memories remind him,
Chorus 3:
He?s got to keep moving, never going to stop,
He?ll have to keep on running cause the past is all he?s got.
V3:
He makes his run through the night, a run for cover, He wonders how much longer before its over,
Should he keep on hiding or should he stop instead, ?Cause it ain?t gonna end till him or the past is dead.
Pre-chorus D:
But he keep s moving on to another place, another town, so many years to go
and the cruel reality surrounds him,
Chorus 4:
He?s gotta keep on running, living day to day,
He?ll always have to run, cause the past is here to stay.
