In the city
Left my shoes and my clothes and
My lovers behind, yeah
Oh but I felt incomplete
Living out there in the street
I was always alone and afraid
Such a pity
Little girls just don't know what comes
Out after dark
But the devil wasn't in here
Down on that dead end street
And I say
Running for cover
Running for cover
Running for cover
It's take keeping me running
I'm just scared that he's out tonight
It's keeping me running
I don't know why, but it's getting dark
Say the devil's in the park
And it's already after dark
Running for cover
Running for cover
Running for cover, now
Life is really so hard when you live in the city
No one know what a young girl
Has on her mind, yeah
But you're headed for defect
Down on that dead end street
Never learned of the lesson
You should, such a pity
Still and all you'll stay away
The others behind
And the promise in the dark
Is that the devil's in the park
And I say
Running for cover
Running for cover
Running for cover
It's take keeping me running
I'm just scared that he's out tonight
It's keeping me running
I don't know why, but it's getting dark
Say the devil's in the park
And it's already after dark
Running for cover
Running for cover
Running for cover
Spent the best of my life running scared
In the city
Left my shoes and my clothes and
My lovers behind, yeah
Oh but I felt incomplete
Living out there in the street
Running for cover
Running for cover
Running for cover
It's take keeping me running
I'm just scared that he's out tonight
It's keeping me running
I don't know why, but it's getting dark
Say the devil's in the park
And it's already after dark
Spent the best of my life running scared In the city Left my shoes and my clothes and My lovers behind, yeah Oh but I felt incomplete Living out there in the street I was always alone and afraid Such a pity Little girls just don't know what comes Out after dark But the devil wasn't in here Down on that dead end street And I say Running for cover Running for cover Running for cover It's take keeping me running I'm just scared that he's out tonight It's keeping me running I don't know why, but it's getting dark Say the devil's in the park And it's already after dark Running for cover Running for cover Running for cover, now Life is really so hard when you live in the city No one know what a young girl Has on her mind, yeah But you're headed for defect Down on that dead end street Never learned of the lesson You should, such a pity Still and all you'll stay away The others behind And the promise in the dark Is that the devil's in the park And I say Running for cover Running for cover Running for cover It's take keeping me running I'm just scared that he's out tonight It's keeping me running I don't know why, but it's getting dark Say the devil's in the park And it's already after dark Running for cover Running for cover Running for cover Spent the best of my life running scared In the city Left my shoes and my clothes and My lovers behind, yeah Oh but I felt incomplete Living out there in the street Running for cover Running for cover Running for cover It's take keeping me running I'm just scared that he's out tonight It's keeping me running I don't know why, but it's getting dark Say the devil's in the park And it's already after dark Explain Request ×
