Into the night, but out of the dark,
|
To be cornered and yet to survive,
|
The jester performed, with his body he scorned,
|
With his voice he amused, and a little confused
|
His masters the King and Queen,
|
The laugh of the King was clear and strong,
|
So out of fear the crowd laughed along,
|
And how I'd love to leave here,
|
Moving under...
|
|
Lost in space and with no hiding place,
|
And no chance of staying alive,
|
His men turn to him with confident eyes,
|
They've been in trouble before, but still they're alive
|
They're sure he'll think of something,
|
But slowly their eyes take on looks that accuse
|
As they realize, he know they must lose,
|
And how I'd love to leave here,
|
Moving under...
|
|
Doesn't anybody know that I am on the run?
|
How I'd love to leave here,
|
Always moving on,
|
Always moving on somewhere that doesn't mean a thing,
|
How I'd love to leave here,
|
How I'd love to be there,
|
Always on the run,
|
Always searching for some place that I can be alone,
|
Doesn't anybody know the reason why?
|
Doesn't anybody know the reason why?
|
|
Into the night, but out of the dark,
|
To be cornered and yet to survive,
|
The Fugitive runs, though his hands are tied,
|
His legs are in irons but his head's held high.
|
He knows how not to feel.
|
|
The time is right to move out of the night,
|
Into the light and stay out of sight,
|
How I'd love to leave there.
|
Moving under...
|
|
Doesn't anybody know the reason why?
|
Doesn't anybody know the reason why?
