Running Late

I know I told you all this before

I'm gonna tell it to you once more

I'm packin' up, I'm leavin'

I'm leavin' this town today

At last I'm on my way



You wanna take and you wanna give

Well, in this town is no place to live

It kicks you down, eats you up, and it won't stop

Until you go

And for me it's time, so...



I know you don't believe me

I know you think I'm wrong

Just pack your things and

come along 'cause

The feeling that I have

Is that we're running late



There are no places that I gotta go

There are no people that I gotta know

Just the world of so much more

than I ever had before

Outside that door



It's up to you, but I don't want you to stay

And watch your chances fade away

And when you're old, you get cold

When you ask yourself how and why

you never dared to try, but...



I know you don't believe me

I know you think I'm wrong

Just pack your things and

come along 'cause

The feeling that I have

Is that we're running late



So we've been running these streets together

We always said that it would be forever

But now we don't run, we thought we won, we just

lost our feet

to these city streets, and...



I know you don't believe me

I know you think I'm wrong

Just pack your things and

come along 'cause

You know what?

We're running late

We're running late

We're running late

We're running late
