E B Time is the only truth, G#m Is the only friend that we have. A To look forward to, E B Space, was an all night groove. G#m Honey, I sink deeper in, A Trying to get to you. Chorus: E And it feels like we are always, B We’re on the run. G#m Yeah, it feels like we are always, A We’re on the run. Home was a place I knew What a burning desire To get back to you When I am full of years Wash my sins away my dear Can you tell the night is through Chorus: 'Cause it feels like we are always We are on the run 'Cause it feels like we are always We are on the run 'Cause it feels like we are always We are on the run We are on the run We are on the run, the run, the run, the run, the run... Babylon, your soul is waiting to arise Your soul is waiting to arise Your soul is waiting to arise I walk alone I walk alone into the light Your soul is waiting to arise Oh we are on the run Oh we are on the run Chorus: And it feels like we are always And it feels like we are always And it feels like we are always We are on the run, the run, the run, the run And it feels like we are always And we feels like we are always And we feels like we are always We are on the run, the run, the run, the run, the run, the run...
