Take off your coat and your hat by the door
Just like the time and the time before
Can you hide? Can you hide?
From something deep inside

Stumble around in the empty street
Tell me who do you think you'll meet?
Oooohh, Oooohh, Oooohh, Oooohh

You always run away from love
You always run away from love
(Oooohh, Oooohh, da daa)

Bet your Momma your Dad
Bet they treat you so bad
They're the worst friends you've ever had
Do you think people like that

Do ya, do ya think they know where it's at?
Come on, can you look ahead?
Not to what’s already dead
Oooohh, Oooohh, Oooohh, Oooohh

You always run away from love
You always run away from love
(Oooohh, Oooohh, da daa)

Oooooohhh try and let it go

Oooooohhh let your feelings show

It's such a long and lonely road

You always run away from love
You always run away from love
You always run away from love
You always run away from love
