When the moon kissed the silent lake The nightwind called us A place too crowded, much too full and loud We better leave now I saw you standing in the lamplight forlorn We gotta get away Desolation is the price they'll pay Now that we're on our own They predicted our future But they turned heaven into hell in no time By giving us the heebie-jeebies While they're driving with full headlight Here comes the night for running away We won't get another chance Too late to hide Everybody's on the run Warning sign Fading into the night Children starving in their mother's arms While the disciples pray In the church of economic growth But now their god is dead Cars are crashing People screaming blue murder Leaders go insane The light of hope now a black hole sun A flashing ray that burns All we have is each other We hold and kiss as the rain falls down Smile for me one last time, my darling You will meet me on the other side Here comes the night for running away We won't get another chance Too late to hide Everybody's on the run Warning sign Fading into the night
