I ran [So Far Away] lyrics

[Verse 1]

I walked along the avenue

I never thought I'd meet a girl like you

Meet a girl like you

With auburn hair and tawny eyes

The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through

Hypnotize me through

[Chorus]

And I ran, I ran so far away

I just ran, I ran all night and day

Couldn't get away

[Verse 2]

A cloud appears above your head

A beam of light comes shining down on you

Shining down on you

The cloud is moving nearer still

Aurora borealis comes in view

Aurora comes in view

[Chorus]

And I ran, I ran so far away

I just ran, I ran all night and day

Couldn't get away

[Verse 3]

Reached out a hand to touch your face

You're slowly disappearing from my view

Disappearing from my view

Reached out a hand to try again

I'm floating in a beam of light with you

A beam of light with you

[Chorus]

And I ran, I ran so far away

I just ran, I ran all night and day

And I ran, I ran so far away

I just ran, I couldn't get away
