Run Away Lyrics - Boats Against The Current - Eric Carmen

(Eric Carmen) 

She was just an average blue-eyed 

Golden high school dream 

An illusion nothing real could ever touch 

Funny love seemed so much more intense 

At seventeen 

When I knew she'd never love me 

Half as much 

I recall the desperate vow I made 

I must find a way somehow to win her heart 

I've got to make her mine

Gonna run away 

Till I prove that I'm a man 

Gonna run away 

Be the best I know I can 

Got to run away 

Got to find my space and time 

And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine 

Trades were made for promises 

Of a timeless memory 

And I knew but still refused to comprehend 

The fantasy more glamorous 

Then she could ever be 

Was the course of least resistance 

In the end 

I recall the desperate vow I made 

I must find a way somehow to win her heart 

I've got to make her mine

Gonna run away 

Till I prove that I'm a man 

Gonna run away 

Be the best I know I can 

Got to run away 

Got to find my space and time 

And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine 

Long ago an innocence 

Lived deep within my soul 

In a yesterday where love 

And dreams remain 

But disillusion clouds my eyes 

And the winter takes it's toll 

For the spring has gone 

And will not come again 

I recall the desperate vow I made 

I must find a way somehow to win her heart 

I've got to make her mine 

Gonna run away 

Till I prove that I'm a man 

Gonna run away 

Be the best I know I can 

Got to run away 

Got to find my space and time 

And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine 

Got to run away 

Got to find my space and time 

And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine
