Sit down awhile,
my mother said one day
And this is what she had to say
What are you gonna do, child
Run, with those kids
in your eyes
Run, no use trying to tell yourself
Run , that you don't love the girl
Take it for what it's worth
You can run,
go to the end of the earth
You can run, you can run, run, run
But oh, you can't hide from love
What are you gonna say, child
When your heartache
won't go away
You can't tell love to go
And come back another day
Try to leave it behind
Well, she's still on your mind
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
What were you thinking of,
little boy?
When you let the little girl go
You're gonna find out one day
There is no hiding place
Run , run, run,
but you can't hide from love
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, she will be there
