Run Away

I remember summer nights
When we were young together
You used to run away
And I used to follow you
Underneeth the waterfall
Into your secret cave
You used to talk for hours
And I used to listen
Then when your father died
You said that we had to leave
I tried to find a way
Off the island
Later that summer night
We saw the sea together
Older at heart
But young in our minds
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
Then about a month at sea
You started to hate it
And you didn’t talk so much
And I didn’t listen
I was overcome by love
A love for the stormy seas
I saw the beauty of it
And you saw the distance
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
Some day the stars will shine
Their undivided light
And leave us alone to find
Another hunting ground
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
(Away)
Run away
(Away)
