[Verse 1]
I walked along the avenue
I never thought I'd meet a girl like you
Meet a girl like you
With auburn hair and tawny eyes
The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through
Hypnotize me through

[Chorus]
And I ran, I ran so far away
I just ran, I ran all night and day

[Post-Chorus]
I couldn't get away
I couldn't get away
I couldn't get away
I couldn't, I couldn't, I couldn't get away

[Verse 2]
Reached out a hand to touch your face
You're slowly disappearing from my view
Appearing from my view (View)
Reached out a hand to try again
I'm floating in a beam of light with you
A beam of light with you (You)
[Chorus]
And I ran (I ran), I ran so far away (Far away)
I just ran (I just ran), I ran all night and day (Night and day)
(Day, day, day, day, day, day, day, day)
And I ran, I ran so far away
I just ran, I ran all night and day
And I ran, I ran so far away (Far away)
I just ran, I couldn't get away (Away)

[Outro]
I couldn't get away
I couldn't get away
I couldn't get away
I couldn't get away
Couldn't get away, I couldn't get away
I couldn't get away
I couldn't get away
I couldn't, I couldn't, I couldn't get away
