Ooh run away lucky while you still know the way
If you´re looking´ for your chance for one good payday
Do you really think you´ve got a ghost of a chance?
It´s the coldest of towns to be lookin´ for romance

Ooh run away baby - you´re too young to see
The way it´s goin´ down on the city streets
When trouble comes around there is no mystery
You´re running´ from it all so you better run now

Love is in pieces - put it back together now
It´s supposed to be easy - but it´s so so mad
All the things we say
When the world´s gone crazy - it´s so hard to handle
Sooner or later it´ll all come clearer
When love is in love again

Ooh pictures in the paper of the faces you´ve seen
Walking down the halls where justice is done
What they say they say is not what they mean?
A different set of rules than are meant for you and me

Everybody´s looking for an easier way
So go go go go
Everybody running from a shadow today
But they run so slow
