You're running and you're running
And you're running away (X4)
But you can't run away from yourself,
Can't run away from yourself, (X3)
You must have done
something wrong
Said you must have done something wrong,
Why you can't find the place where you belong ?
Running away, running away,
Running away, running away,
Every man thinketh his burden is the
heaviest,
Every man thinketh his burden is the heaviest,
Who feels it knows it, Lord,
Who feels it knows
it, Lord (bis)
You're running and you're running
And you're running away (X4)
But you can't run away
from yourself,
Can't run away from yourself, (X3)
You must have done somethin',
Somethin', somethin',
somethin',
You don't want nobody to know about,
Ya must have done, Lord, somethin' wrong,
What you
must have done,
You must have done somethin' wrong,
Why you can't find where you belong ?
You're
running away, you're running away,
I'm not running away, no, don't say that,
Don't say that 'cause I'm not running
away,
I've got to protect my life,
And I don't want to live with no strife,
It is better to live on the
housetop,
Than to live in a house full of confusion,
So, I made my decision and I left ya,
Now you comin'
to tell me that I'm
Runnin' away, but it's not true,
I am not runnin' away, you couldn't say I do...
