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 Im on the run.
On the run, on the run, the sheriff come get me, and Im on the run.

Standin out in the rain, cant remember when I felt so all alone,
Tired to the bone.
But if I have to run, you know Ill keep the thing Ive 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 cant 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.
