Ever since she was a teenager
She was waiting for that day to come
When the sun would shine and
The clouds could hide in the morning breeze
16 years I moved away from home
Left a band and took a bus to the Northern land
Made some friends, played the guitar and
Sang the songs about the stars behind the moon
But love was this illusion
But there was darkness ahead
Run baby, run baby, run for cover
Some things will never change, so run, run like no other
Run baby, run baby, run for cover
See the silver lining and just run for cover
The river runs fast through the small dark town
When you marry at 18 then you settle down
Some dreams get lost and the freights on the night
Makes it hard to fall asleep
More like an illusion of what the light's meant to be
Just run, baby run, baby run for cover
Don't go wasting your time
You know there will be others
Run baby, run baby, run for cover
Don't go wasting your time
You know there will be others
Just run, baby run, baby run for cover
This love will never last so run, run for cover
Did she wake up to tell you there's a storm on his way?
Did she hold you and whisper you know that I'll stay?
Did it matter that you promised you're mine?
Did he tell you to break it, just stop being kind?
There is always the chance that you'll lose in the end
When the battle is over, just hope you can mend
When the sirens can warn ya' it's easy to fall
When the wind will stop blowing, you can't hear me call
Baby run, run
Please, baby, just run
Baby just run
And baby just run
♪
Can you see what is now and what is yet to come
Let me hear your limitation
Here's to love
Years to come
