[Verse 1]

I've been meaning to tell you

I've been trying to tell you for so long

Didn't know how to face you to cut this off

Was it consideration

Or showing signs of a weakness on my part

Was I hoping you'd finally hear my heart

[Pre-Chorus]

Am I patient for nothing

Why can't you show me a little sympathy

Tell me something is coming please

[Chorus]

Just a word from you to hold on to

Before the night is gone

Can't you see we're living on the run

Baby close your eyes to realize

Before it comes undone

Can't you see we're living on the run

Whoa-oh, living on the run

Whoa-oh, living on the run

[Verse 2]

In bed with a stranger

That's how it feels in our bed again

Know your not sleeping baby, but don't pretend

Now it seems like I'm screaming

Crying out but I can not hear a sound

Like the sand in an hourglass, I am running out

[Pre-Chorus]

Am I patient for nothing (Am I patient for nothing)

Why can't you show me a little sympathy

Tell me something is coming please

[Chorus]

Just a word from you to hold on to

Before the night is gone

Can't you see we're living on the run

Baby close your eyes and realize

Before it comes undone

Can't you see we're living on the run

Whoa-oh, living on the run

Whoa-oh, living on the run

[Bridge]

Why are we wasting all this time

No one needs another empty night

Just a word from you to hold on to

Before the night is gone

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Just a word from you to hold on to

Before the night is gone

Can't you see we're living on the run

Baby close your eyes and realize

Before it comes undone

Can't u see we're living on the run

Whoa-oh, living on the run

Whoa-oh, living on the run

Whoa-oh, living on the run

Whoa-oh, living on the run
