Can't Run Forever

歌詞

You said the noise from the freeway Keeps you up so you sleep all day The walls are empty in your new place You said all your friends live out of state You up and left without a warning Getting up before the morning light It's nothing new, it's what you're used to And everyone knows you're just that type And every time that you're feeling down You hitch a ride and you head out of town Now you're alone and it goes to show That you can't run forever There's not a trace of where you been before And there's a mattress on your bedroom floor You stick around until you're tied down And you feel like walking out the door You say you wanna be a new face You wanna go where no one knows your name And everyone that you run into Is just a new chance to state your case And every time that you're feeling down You hitch a ride and you head out of town Now you're alone and it goes to show That you can't run forever You got the blues in the ocean air New pair of shoes and you colored your hair It's just the way that the story goes Honey, you can't run forever The next time you're sitting at the gate Thinking that it's time for a change Well you just might find when you open your eyes That the mirror in the next town looks the same And every time that you're feeling down You hitch a ride and you head out of town Now you're alone and it goes to show That you can't run forever You got the blues in the ocean air New pair of shoes and you colored your hair It's just the way that the story goes Honey, you can't run forever
