judy collins & ari hest - run lyrics
[verse 1]
in a country that pretends to learn
from tragedy and pain
revolution is a never-ending game
the cards are dealt
the odds are known
the winners hide away
till fortune brings them round again
it’s a wound that seems too large to mend
[chorus]
i want to run
away from it
i want to run
don’t wanna stay for it
i want to run
far as i can go
but it’s not the answer
i want to run
because i’ve seen enough
i want to run
but i can’t give up
i won’t run
[verse 2]
there are those that i believe
have courage fit to lead
but they say the damage has been done
and that all that’s left to do
is hope and pray for miracles
they’ve decided that the darkness has won
as if blind to each morning’s sun
[chorus]
makes me wanna run
away from it
i want to run
don’t wanna stay for it
i want to run
far as i can go
but it’s not the answer
i want to run
but i’m never through
i want to run
there’s more that i can do
i won’t run
i won’t run
i wanna run
away from it
i want to run
don’t wanna stay for it
i want to run
far as i can go
but it’s not the answer
i want to run
but i’m never through
i want to run
there’s more that i can do
i won’t run
i won’t run
i won’t run
i won’t run
