A hotel room don't make it, a few drinks just can't shake it
A phone call just don't tell it, a magazine won't dispel it
I know I've got a chance to choose, your sweet love could chase my blues
I got no choice and it's not fair, I hear your voice but you're not there
Maybe I've been on the run too long, ooh how I miss your old sweet song!
Maybe I've been on the run, too long!
An afternoon won't relieve me, stolen hours just grieve me
I know you don't deceive me, how can I make you believe me?
Bad man poundin' on the walls again, the night's so dark and the wall too thin
I don't sleep and I don't see right, with your sweet love on my mind all night
Maybe I've been on the run too long, ooh how I miss your old sweet song!
Maybe I've been on the run, too long!
No a hotel room don't make it, a few drinks just can't shake it
Phone calls just don't tell it, a magazine won't dispel it
Bad man poundin' on the walls again, the night's so dark and the wall too thin
I got no choice and it's not fair, I hear your voice but you're not there
Maybe I've been on the run too long, ooh how I miss your old sweet song!
Maybe I've been on the run, too long!
Maybe I've been on the run, too long!
