Songs of 1974

Run, run Run, run To the mountains To the sea And if someone is after you Run with me I'll hop in my car Hightail it to Mexico Or shoot for the stars There's no limit to where I'll go But if they catch me, that's the end So I must run Run, run Run, run To the mountains To the sea And if someone is after you Run with me There's a light in darkness I'll keep it well in sight Freedom around the corner Hope I make it through the night And the road to safety lies only in your arms But I'm lost in the world of which I am a part And the sooner I get there, the happier I'll be And I want you To run with me The end may be near Unless I reach where I want to be I know I can't stay here A new horizon will be good to see But if they catch me, that's the end So I must run Run, run Run, run To the mountains To the sea And if someone is after you Run with me There's a light in darkness I'll keep it well in sight Freedom around the corner Hope I make it through the night And the road to safety lies only in your arms But I'm lost in the world of which I am a part And the sooner I get there, the happier I'll be And I want you To run with me Run, run Run, run To the mountains To the sea And if someone is after you Run with me

In 1971, Ambush, the band I was in as a bass player, wrote a song called "Run". We performed it at some of our gigs (there were only three in all.) I have no recollection of how it went, but I think it was basically a jam. Jo Jo Gunne had a song called Run, Run, Run, so to avoid confusion between these two songs, I wrote, "Run, Run"
