Run Away From Time Lyrics - Other People's Lives - Ray Davies

Hey, my friend 

You can't run away from time 

They say you can't fight fate 

Time won't wait 

You can't run away from time 

And time is the avenger 

But why should we just surrender to it? 

Why go through it? 

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run away 

Let's run away from time 

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run away 

Girl, you and me 

We've got to set ourselves free this time 

We must try to escape 

Because it's never too late 

Liberation is ours to find 

Hey, hey, let's run away 

Let's run away from time 

Hey, hey, let's run away 

Hey, girl 

Let's run away from time 

We've still got mountains to climb 

A day at a time 

It's never too late, so why should we wait? 

Take me, save me, maybe, baby 

Run, run, run away 

Run, run, run away 

Run, run, run away 

The world is too obsessed 

By the continual quest 

For the fountain of youth 

They will never find 

And time is the avenger 

But why should we just surrender to it? 

Why go through it? 

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run away 

Let's run away from time 

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run away 

Run, run, run away 

Run, run, run away 

Run, run, run away 

Run, run, run away
