lyrics

RUNNING HOME TONIGHT
Verse 1
WE RODE OUT ON THE HIGHWAY AND WE SWORE WE’D NEVER RUN
FROM ANYONE OR ANYTHING WE WERE RESTLESS AND WE WERE YOUNG
AND WE THOUGHT WE’D ALL THE ANSWERS AND WE KNEW WE’D GOT IT MADE
LIFE WAS GOOD RUNNING FREE AND WE’D SAY LET THE GOOD TIMES NEVER FADE
SO WE’D LIVE FOR EVERY MOMENT OUR HEARTS WERE FULL OF FIRE
OUR WILDEST DREAMS ANYTHING WE WERE BURNING WITH DESIRE
PRE-CHORUS
BUT ONE DAY...YOUR GONNA RUN LIKE A REBEL AND I KNOW IT’S SOMETHING YOU GOTTA DO
WHEN YOU’RE HEADS FULL OF CRAZY FEELING DON’T MEAN SOMETHINGS WRONG WITH YOU
“COS I’LL BE RUNNING TOO”
CHORUS
AND I’M RUNNING HOME TONIGHT
AND YOU WON’T SEE NOTHING BUT MY RED TAIL LIGHT
I’M RUNNING HOME TO.....NIGHT
I’M RUNNING HOME TONIGHT
I’VE GOT THE WIND IN MY FACE
AND I’M DOING ALRIGHT
I’M RUNNING HOME TONIGHT
I’M RUNNING HOME TONIGHT

VERSE 2
BROKEN PROMISES MAY LAY ON THE GROUND LIKE SHARDS OF BROKEN GLASS
BENEATH YOUR BLOODY FEET BUT LIFE CAN BE SWEET AND THE GOOD TIMES THEY COME FAST
BUT THE RUNNING CAN NEVER BE OVER WHILE YOU’RE HEART IT BEATS WITHIN
AND YOUR SUNSETS MAY BE FADING BUT THE SUNS GONNA RISE AGAIN
SHOULD YOUR ENGINE START TO LABOUR WHEN YOU’VE RUSTED OUT THE CHROME
DON’T MATTER WHICH WAY YOU’RE TURNING ALL WILL ROADS TAKE YOU HOME

PRE CHORUS
AND THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH RUNNING...IT’S WHERE YOUR RUNNING TO
CHORUS
AND WE’LL GO RUNNING HOME TONIGHT
AND YOU WON’T SEE NOTHING BUT A RED TAIL LIGHT
WER’E RUNNING HOME TO.....NIGHT
SO IF YOU’RE RUNNING HOME TONIGHT
AND IF YOU’R RUNNING LIKE A REBEL
WELL THAT’S ALRIGHT
WE’LL GO RUNNING HOME TONIGHT
WE’LL GO RUNNING HOME TONIGHT
WE’LL GO RUNNING HOME TOGETHER TONIGHT
WE’LL GO RUNNING HOME TONIGHT
