Run For Your Life

(album: Hand Cut - 1983)

Run, run for your life
Run, run for your life
Keep on running (run, run, run)
Keep on running (gotta run, gotta run, gotta run)

Don't, don't turn around
Don't make a sound
'Cause somebody's watching you
Tonight, don't close your eyes
As darkness arrives
'Cause somebody's watching you

Look to the right, it could be nothing at all
Here in the light, it doesn't matter at all
Coming into sight, don't be afraid of the night

You better run, run for your life
The loneliness around you cuts like a knife
So you run, run for your life
The shadow won't be far behind in the heat of the night
Run, run for your life
You better run, run for your life (run, run, run)
Keep on running

And now, as heroes pretend
With nerves at an end
Still saying never die
Alone, see how they fall
They're not that hard at all
Fear is behind their eyes

Wait for the break, it could be nothing at all
It's all a mistake, it doesn't matter at all
Only for your sake, don't be afraid of the night

You better run, run for your life
The loneliness around you cuts like a knife
So you run, run for your life
The shadow won't be far behind in the heat of the night
Run, run for your life
You better run, run for your life (run, run, run)
Keep on running

And in a while another day
Will take your fear away
And, you try a smile
To make a day
But in the night you stay
