I roll in like a desert wind
With a broken smile and a heart that's on the mend
Leaving home for the painted sky
Away from you and the pain that fills my eyes, oh yeah
And now I know the truth
Why I run from you
And I know the truth
I'm on the run just living like a gypsy
I'm on the run just living like a gypsy
Heard that line a hundred times
Say, "Boy, what are you runnin' from?"
I'm on the run if you know what you're missing
Then come and get you some
Lay my head under the stars alone
Tryin' to find a love to call my own
Ain't no use in telling you I miss
Your precious smile but still I rеminisce
Now I know the truth
Why I run from you
And I know the truth
I'm on thе run just living like a gypsy
I'm on the run just living like a gypsy
And I heard that line a hundred times
Said, "Boy, what are you runnin' from?"
I'm on the run if you know what you're missing
Then come and get you some
Ooh, baby
Oh, baby
Do ya feel the same? Mmm, yeah
Gettin' on all right
Do ya feel the same?
And now I know the truth
Why I run from you
And I know the truth
I'm on the run just living like a gypsy
I'm on the run, living like a gypsy
Said I heard that line a hundred times
Boy, what are you runnin' from?
I'm on the run if you know what you're missin'
Then come and get you some
