Run Away (Digitally Remastered 1997) - Eric Carmen

Written by：Eric Carmen

She was just an average blue-eyed golden

High school dream

An illusion nothing real could ever touch

Funny love seemed so much more intense at seventeen

When I knew she'd never love me half as much

I recall the desperate vow I made

I must find a way somehow to win her heart

I've got to make her mine

Gonna run away till I prove that I'm a man

Gonna run away be the best I know I can

Got to run away got to find my space and time

And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine

Trades were made for promises of a timeless memory

And I knew but still refused to comprehend

The fantasy more glamorous then she could ever be

Was the course of least resistance in the end

I recall the desperate vow I made

I must find a way somehow to win her heart

I've got to make her mine

Gonna run away till I prove that I'm a man

Gonna run away be the best I know I can

Got to run away got to find my space and time

And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine

Long ago an innocence lived deep within my soul

In a yesterday where love and dreams remain

But disillusion clouds my eyes and the winter takes it's toll

For the spring has gone and will not come again

I recall the desperate vow I made

I must find a way somehow to win her heart

I've got to make her mine

Gonna run away till I prove that I'm a man

Gonna run away be the best I know I can

Got to run away got to find my space and time

And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine

Got to run away

Got to find my space and time

And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine
