Running Man (Live 1981) - Al Stewart[00:00:00]
Before the phone hits the receiver[00:00:38]
You're halfway to the door[00:00:40]
The voice said get out while you can[00:00:42]
There's just 10 minutes nothing more[00:00:44]
Time for only the essentials better gather them and run[00:00:46]
The false name inside the passport the gold bars and the gun[00:00:50]
And once again they've come out of the past[00:00:54]
And though your mind is cool your heart's beating fast[00:00:58]
You've been through it all before[00:01:02]
Each time you wish a little more than you can ask[00:01:04]
What do you want from me[00:01:08]
What do you need from me[00:01:10]
There's no rest for the running man[00:01:12]
Why can't you let him be[00:01:14]
It's a long and twisting journey from the sweeping northern plains[00:01:24]
To the outcrops of the jungle bowed beneath the tropic rains[00:01:28]
In the customs hall the officer takes you to one side[00:01:33]
And his eyes reveal no feeling as you hand over the bribe[00:01:36]
And once again you've bought a little time[00:01:40]
And once again you're fading out of sight[00:01:44]
Still the fox is growing older as he calls over your shoulder to the[00:01:48]
Night[00:01:53]
What do you want from me[00:01:54]
What do you need from me[00:01:56]
There's no rest for the running man[00:01:58]
Why can't you let him be[00:02:00]
Here come over here beneath a sympathetic moon[00:02:10]
We'll sit and talk over old times without a fear[00:02:15]
Another beer from the cafes of the night[00:02:20]
The tumbling rhythms of guitars ring loud and clear[00:02:24]
One by one they've nailed the others but you always got away[00:02:56]
What it is that keeps you just that step ahead no one can say[00:03:00]
In one last raid the agents of the dawn break down the door[00:03:04]
Of a house where you were standing maybe just an hour before[00:03:08]
And still the thread continues to unwind[00:03:12]
You take the hidden roads that only you can find[00:03:16]
And should they come upon your tracks[00:03:20]
There's just a question hanging back you left behind[00:03:22]
What do you want from me[00:03:26]
What do you need from me[00:03:27]
There's no rest for the running man[00:03:29]
Why can't you let him be[00:03:31]
