Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
While I powder my nose He will powder his gums And if I try to get close He is already gone Don't know where he's going Don't know where he's been But he is restless at night 'Cause he has horrible dreams So we lay in the dark, We've got nothing to say Just the beating of hearts, Like two drums in the grey I don't know what we're doing I don't know what we've done But the fire is coming So I think we should run I think we should run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Run, run, run While I put on my shoes He will button his coat And we will step outside Checking that the coast is clear on both sides 'Cause we don't wanna be seen Oh, this is suicide But you can't see the ropes And I won't tell my mother It's better she don't know And he won't tell his folks, 'Cause they're already ghosts And we'll just keep each other, As safe as we can Until we reach the border Until we make our plan To run, run, run, run To run, run, run, run To run, run, run, run Will you stay with me my love For another day? 'Cause I don't want to be alone, When I'm in this state Will you stay with me my love? 'Til we're old and grey 'Cause I don't wanna be alone When these bones decay Run, run, run, run Oh run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Run
