Robert Palmer
Lonely Runner
If it's love you're feeling
Why is your heart concealing?
Don't you know that it shows in your eyes?
Did you try to hide it?
Keep the truth inside you
Don't you know I can see through your lies?
You're the lonely runner
Not the only runner
And you keep on running, running away
Are you looking for something?
Could it be that you're tired of running?
In the night, you're waiting
As the light keeps fading
You pretend that we've said our goodbyes
Do you still denyin'
Just to keep from cryin'?
Still afraid to believe that love dies
You're the lonely runner
Not the only runner
And you keep on running, running away
Are you looking for something?
Could it be that you're tired of running?
Running away
I'll be here waiting
When there's nobody else you can run to
You're the lonely runner
Not the only runner
And you keep on running, running away
Are you looking for something?
Could it be that you're tired of running?
And you keep on running, running away
