Marshall Crenshaw - On the Run Lyrics

(m. crenshaw)

Run...i'm on the run
And it's goodby for good this time
Don't care where the road may wind
I'm gonna leave all my troubles far behind
Run...i'm on the run...just like a killer
Down the dark highway
Don't know where I've been today
Been running since she walked away
Night's fallin'...the wind's callin' her name
How did I ever get caught in this game?
No I couldn't know
'cause I've always been the trusting kind
Then one day I had to wake up and find
That I'd lost everything that I thought was mine
Gone...now I'm long gone
Little girl don't come looking round for me
Oh yes I'm gonna be wild and free
In a little while you'll be just a memory
White lines on the road keep rolling by
Try and catch me
I'll take off and fly
