Running For Our Lives Lyrics - Marianne Faithfull

Move along staying close to the wall 

Looking over your shoulder just in time. 

Avoid the light, close your eyes 

And put your hand in mine. 

And put your hand in mine. 

Are we in danger, or is it that 

You think we might be? 

But I think I'd like to get out of here, 

This place it frightens me, 

This place it frightens me. 

Running for our lives, 

At least we're pretending we are. 

Running for our lives, 

We never get very far. 

We never get very far. 

We never get very far.

Stop pretending 

This is a child's adventure, 

The only way I can take it 

Is playing the game. 

Be quiet, there's a gate ahead. 

Do you think we can make it? 

Will it be different, or just the same? 

How long can we keep escaping, 

How long can we keep escaping, 

How long can we keep escaping 

Into another prison? 

Running for our lives, 

At least we're pretending we are. 

Running for our lives, 

We never get very far. 

We never get very far. 

We never get very far.

And put your hand in mine 

And put your hand in mine. 

Running for our lives, 

At least we're pretending we are. 

Running for our lives, 

We never get very far. 

We never get very far. 

We never get very far. 

We never get very far. 

We never get very far. 

We never get very far. 

We never get ...
