We All Run Lyrics - Magnum

I dreamt I saw the cities burning 

At the gates I saw the angels cry 

Now there'll be no turning 

And still I wonder why 

I dreamt I felt the hand of reason 

Coming slowly down, it passed me by 

It's just the killing season 

It's a foolish lie 

We all run - it's a pity for everyone 

It's all gone - and there's nothing that can be done 

We all run - so get ready, the time has come 

We all run - it's all over, the game is won 

And I dreamt I took a thousand footsteps 

To a sea as black and filled with tears 

Now there'll be no goodness 

For a thousand years 

I dreamt I crossed a raging river 

That was pure and clear and washed away 

All my troubles wither 

Into another day 

We all run - it's a pity for everyone 

It's all gone - and there's nothing that can be done 

We all run - so get ready, the time has come 

We all run - it's all over, the game is won 

The cost is too much 

In nothing we trust 

Everything we touch 

Turns into dust 

We all run - it's a pity for everyone 

It's all gone - and there's nothing that can be done 

We all run - so get ready, the time has come 

We all run - it's all over, the game is won 

We all run - it's a pity for everyone 

It's all gone - and there's nothing that can be done 

We all run - so get ready, the time has come 

We all run - it's all over, the game is won
