Run Lyrics
I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done
And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes
I nearly do
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear
Mmmm mmmmm
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say-ay
Ah ah aaaah, ah ah ahh ah eh, ah ah ahhhh ah ah ahhhhh eh ..... yeah ah
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
(Even if you cannot hear)
I'll be right beside you dear
(I'll be right beside you dea-ea-ear ohhh ohh oh oh ouhh)
Louder louder
(Louder mmm loude-e-er)
And we'll run for our lives
(And we'll run for our lives)
I can hardly speak I understand
(I can hardly speak I understand)
Why you can't raise your voice to say
(Why you can't raise your voice to oooouh ouhhhouhhh ouh ouh ouh ouh ouh ouh ouh ..... haaaa haaaa ha ha.....)
Meaning of Run
“Run” is a heartbreaking ballad about a relationship dissolving under immense pressure and unspoken pain. Leona Lewis powerfully conveys the desperate, almost surreal feeling of escaping a situation where communication has broken down completely. The lyrics depict a couple on the verge of a final goodbye, acknowledging that “you’ve been the only thing that’s right,” yet unable to express their feelings or truly connect. The repeated urging to "run for our lives" represents an instinctive need for escape from a suffocating silence and potentially dangerous circumstances. Despite the inability to speak, the singer remains steadfastly by their partner's side, offering silent support as they desperately try to flee. The soaring vocals and layered harmonies build to a chaotic climax, capturing the raw emotion of panic, fear, and ultimately, a futile attempt to save what’s left before it’s too late – a poignant exploration of lost love and voiceless desperation.
