[Intro]
Run away (Run away)
Run away from here (Run away from here)
Run away (Run away)
Run away from here (Run away from here)

[Verse 1]
Run away all alone
Run away from fear
Run away from sadness
Run away from tears
Run away from home
From the wife and kids
From the cats and the doggies
Run away to forgive

[Pre-Chorus]
Run into the light...
Run into the light...
Run away from here
(Run away from here)

[Chorus]
Hide away in the lion's den
Play with matches, you get burned
Flying high in an aeroplane
Run away, run away, run away (Run away)
In a fast car on a highway
Burning tracks towards the sunset
No turning back and no regrets
I'll think of you... (If I don't forget)
[Post-Chorus]
Run away
Run away, run away
Run away from here

[Verse 2]
Run away from the church
(Run away from the church)
Run away from guilt
(Run away from guilt)
Run away from (your) dreams
(Run away from your dreams)
Everything you built
(Everything you built)

[Pre-Chorus]
Run into the light...
Run into the light...
Run away from here
(Run away from here)

[Chorus]
Hide away in the lion's den
Play with matches, you get burned
Flying high in an aeroplane
Run away, run away, run away (Run away)
In a fast car on a highway
Burning tracks towards the sunset
No turning back and no regrets
I'll think of you...
[Verse 3]
Run away from the office (Run away from the office)
From your old work shoes (From your old work shoes)
Run away from crime (Run away from crime)
And the big-city blues (And the big-city blues)
Run away from money (Run away from money)
And the jaws of death (And the jaws of death)
Run away from lawyers (Run away from lawyers)
And the government (And the government)
Run away from your friends
And your family, too
Run away from yourself
Run away from you

[Saxophone Solo]

[Outro]
Run away from here
(Run away from here)
Run away
(Run away, run away)
Run away from here
(Run away from here)
Run away from here
(Run away from here)
