How long could a feeling like this last?
The road away from here

Oh, how the years have been so kind to me

I found the permanent place
Where the skies are gold, not grey
Where I can taste the salt on your skin
And feel the sunshine on my face
We're gonna run
We're gonna run, gonna run away from the day
We're gonna run
Gonna run, gonna run away from the day

We're gonna run

I found the permanent plance
Where the skies are gold, not grey

And we're gonna run
And we're gonna run
