When I pull you into the light
I can see right through
That hole inside
You listen to rock and roll
Believe in other gods
If I think about it baby
We're totally at odds

When you're close to me
Something stirs in me
Oh, the beast is free
But I know you'll never be

Chorus:
Why do I always chase the ones that run
Why do I always chase the ones that run

He is a friend of mine
We dine from time to time
We drink and smoke and then
I take a six-train home again
I need time to pretend
That he didn't touch me at all

Chorus
