Merry, merry, merry go round I don’t want to see you down I don’t want to see you frown Merry go round Bobby and his girl would wake up every summer day This boy and girl had nothing, they were runaways So in love that now all they wanted was pain and so

Those were different days But those were different days Staring at the picture of the runaways on the wall Seems like these day you couldn’t run away at all And even if you did, what you got to run away to Just another drunk daddy with a white man’s

Tonight we’ll just get drunk Disturb the peace And then you bite your lip Whisper and say, “We’re going all the way” Tonight, take me to the other side Just take me to the other side I see that sexy look in your eyes And I know, we ain’t friends anymore

When the pressure's building for a great white hope And the pressure's building 'til it takes you whole Can you go back on your own word? See the way we all run When we know it all off by heart Do you give up things you love? Why don't you tell me What

It's all in you But we can't judge and play the game No way open up your eyes All is to be me Got to run the day And see that all is to be me Stop looking away And see that all is new to me

It's all in you But we can't judge and play the game No way open up your eyes All is to be me Got to run the day And see that all is to be me Stop looking away And see that all is new to me

And I don't go giving up There's a little devil in us all Swear everybody in this town just wants to see you fall Baby, it's no fun, so know it's just a game, yeah Oh, keep running outta love When I'm running outta love, love No, let's say I've had

I've figured out that joy is not in your arms I know I'll always ache with an empty heart I think it's time to run 'cos I'm seeing stars I'm seeing stars, watch me fall apart Anything we should know about your change? Stood in the rain and watched you go

Can we run away tonight And hide from tomorrows Take me, pull me all around Break me, I'm yours The glass is cracking tonight Shattering our fears away The silence in here fades And it's only your eyes that I see We die in this moment

Tonight we’ll just get drunk Disturb the peace And then you bite your lip Whisper and say, “We’re going all the way” Tonight, take me to the other side Just take me to the other side I see that sexy look in your eyes And I know, we ain’t friends anymore
