Lyrics Judy Collins – Run

In a country that pretends to learn
From tragedy and pain
Revolution is a never-ending game
The cards are dealt

I want to run
Away from it
I want to run
Don’t wanna stay for it
I want to run
Far as I can go
But it’s not the answer
I want to run
Because I’ve seen enough
I want to run
But I can’t give up
I won’t run

There are those that I believe
Have courage fit to lead
But they say the damage has been done
And that all that’s left to do
Is hope and pray for miracles
They’ve decided that the darkness has won
As if blind to each morning’s sun

Makes me wanna run
Away from it
I want to run

I wanna run
Away from it
I want to run
Don’t wanna stay for it
I want to run
Far as I can go
But it’s not the answer
I want to run
But I’m never through
I want to run
There’s more that I can do
I won’t run
I won’t run
I won’t run
I won’t run
