RUN FOR YOUR LOVE
words and music by Sam Cooper

1) Since you've been around, I've been like a hound,
Wanting you so bad, and so long,
Not until I met you, didn't know it was true,
I could ever love you, but I was so wrong.

You make me run for your love.
You've gotta run 'cause I'm onto you.
I've got to run for your love, and I am hot on your heels.
Run for your love, if you don't want it to last,
You'd better run for your love, if you don't know how good it feels.

2) So here's this strange guy, and you're scared and very shy,
Got no notion where to turn.
Will I compromise your senses? Break down your defenses?
Is it senseless to try if I get burned?

repeat chorus

(bridge)
Slow down, can't you tell, I almost gave up when I fell,
It's like I'm in a gypsy's spell tryin' to get free.
Now everything in my world is repossessed and listen, girl,
I'm so tired of talking, we're wasting time by walkin',

It's time to run for your love, you've gotta run 'cause I'm onto you.
I've gotta run for your love, I am hot on your heels.
You make me run for your love, if you don't want it to last,
You'd better run for your love, if you don't know how good it feels
Well gotta run for your love, you've gotta run 'cause I'm onto you.
I've got to run for your love, and I am hot on your heels.
But if you run for your love, then you won't make it last, oh no,
You oughta run for your love, you should know how good it feels.
You'd better run for your love, if you don't, I am onto you,
You better run for your love, baby, I am hot on your heels.
It's time to run for your love, you've gotta run 'cause I'm onto you.
Why do you run for your love, if you don't know how good it feels,
You make me run for your love, you've gotta run 'cause I'm onto you.
I've got to run for your love, and I am hot on your heels.
But if you run for your love, then you won't make it last,
Oh no, you oughta run for your love, you should know how good it feels.
