You said you see me running and that is no surprise

When I was far from danger, I opened my eyes

When I look back in anger for I did nothing wrong

It's just a race for strangers and this race goes on



I'm so glad that I don't need her

And I'm too tired of trying to please her

But in the end I just can't leave her

Can't leave her tonight



You've got a different story from anything that I've been told

But you evade the glory coming from the cold

Don't wait until tomorrow, don't push it back to another day

Don't try to hide your sorrow what else can I say



I'm so glad that I don't need her

And I'm too tired of trying to please her

But in the end I just can't leave her

Can't leave her tonight



You said you see me running

But that was no surprise

When I was far from danger

I opened my eyes



I'm so glad that I don't need her

And I'm too tired of trying to please her

But in the end I just can't leave her

Can't leave her tonight



I'm so glad that I don't need her

And I'm too tired of trying to please her

But in the end I just can't leave her

Can't leave her tonight

And not tonight
