Silent Running Lyrics - Singles - Mike & The Mechanics

Take the children and yourself 

And hide out in the cellar 

By now the fighting will be close at hand 

Don't believe the church and state 

And everything they tell you 

Believe in me, I'm with the high command 

Can you hear me, can you hear me running? 

Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? 

Can you hear me, can you hear me running? 

Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? 

There's a gun and ammunition 

Just inside the doorway 

Use it only in emergency 

Better you should pray to God 

The Father and the Spirit 

Will guide you and protect from up here 

Can you hear me, can you hear me running? 

Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? 

Can you hear me, can you hear me running? 

Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? 

Swear allegiance to the flag 

Whatever flag they offer 

Never hint at what you really feel 

Teach the children quietly 

For some day sons and daughters 

Will rise up and fight while we stood still 

Can you hear me, can you hear me running? 

Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? 

Can you hear me, can you hear me running? 

Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? 

Can you hear me, can you hear me running? 

Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? 

Can you hear me running (can you hear me calling you?) 

(Can you hear me) hear me calling you? 

(Can you hear me running) hear me running babe? 

(Can you hear me running) hear me running? 

Calling you, calling you
