You Can Run (but You Can't Hide)

Sit down awhile

My mother said one day

And this is what she had to say

What are you gonna do, child

With those tears in your eyes

(Run) no use trying to tell yourself

(Hide) that you don't love the girl

Take it for what it's worth

(You can't hide)

Go to the end of the Earth

(You can't hide)

You can run, run, run but

Oh, you can't hide from love

What are you gonna say, child

When your heartaches won't go

(Run) you can't tell love to go

(Hide) and come back another day

Try to leave it behind

(You can't hide)

Well, she's still on your mind

(You can't hide)

Run, run, run but you

Can't hide from love

Love is too wide

You can't get around it

It's too high

You can't get over it

Oh, no, you can't get over it

So what are you

Gonna do now, child

You still love her so

(Run) what were you

Thinking of, little boy (hide)

When you let the little girl go

You're gonna find out one day

(You can't hide)

There is no hiding place

(You can't hide)

Run, run, run but you

Can't hide from love

Oh, run (run, run, run)

But you can't hide

(Run, run, run)

Love will be by your side

(Run, run, run)

Cause wherever you go

(Run, run, run)

She will be there I know
