Music & Lyrics by : Jeff Lynne

Originally performed by E.L.O. [The Electric Light Orchestra]
|
|
whatever I do, wherever I go
|
the same afterglow
|
is keepin' me low
|
don't wanna lose it
|
but don't wanna stay here too long
|
|
they see you go by
|
I tell you no lie
|
you're up in the sky
|
make everyone cry
|
don't wanna lose it
|
but don't wanna stay around here
|
|
Chorus
|
I'm on the run again
|
I'm on the run again
|
but it's like what they say
|
when it happens this way
|
you gotta do it again and again
|
|
I hear them talkin' and they go on and on
|
they think that nothing is wrong
|
and so they just carry on about you
|
don't wanna lose it
|
but I gotta move out of here
|
|
I see them waiting there for most of the day
|
I known you asked them to stay
|
but they just won't go away
|
don't wanna lose it
|
but I gotta do it again
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Bridge
|
I know it ain't real
|
but when you are near
|
you're saying the things
|
that I wanna hear
|
don't wanna lose it
|
but I gotta do it again
|
|
Chorus
