Close your eyes tonight, make believe the train will come along
And carry me back where I should be
Reach out through the night, and wash away the pain that wasted so much time
And break my heart, break my mind

Chorus:
On the run, on the run, the sheriff come get me, say I'm on the run
On the run, on the run, the sheriff come get me, and I'm on the run

Standin' out in the rain, can't remember when I felt so all alone
Tired to the bone
But if I have to run, you know I'll keep the thing I've done inside of me
Until the hangman sets me free

Chorus

Lookin' back on some imaginary time
Thinkin' back when I was raised
Lookin' at the blackbirds singin' on the line
But they can't sing you back to me

Chorus

Do-do-do. do-do-doo, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-doooo
Do-do-do. do-do-doo, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-dooooooooooooooo
