On the Run
Chasing Shadows of Memory: On the Run with Paul Hardcastle
Lyrics
Look out, look out, look out, look out
Caution or warning to be aware of something
Look in, look in, look in
Directed attention towards introspection or self-reflection
Look out, look out, look out, look out
Repeated caution or warning, emphasizing the need for vigilance
Look in, look in, look in
Continued focus on introspection or self-reflection
All I do is a constant reminder
Everything done serves as a continual reminder
The future's here and it walks right behind you
The future is always present and influencing, following closely
All I see is a constant illusion
Perception is consistently skewed or deceptive
My head spins and my world's in confusion
Feeling disoriented and bewildered in one's world
Look out, look out, look out, look out
Reiteration of caution or warning, reinforcing the need for vigilance
Look in, look in, look in
Continued emphasis on introspection or self-reflection
Look out, look out, look out, look out
Reiterated caution or warning, stressing vigilance again
Look in, look in, look in
Continued focus on introspection or self-reflection
All I see is self-rearranging
Observing self-transformation or self-adaptation
The moment's here but it's already changing
The current moment is fleeting and undergoing rapid change
Take one step and that's your direction
Every action taken leads to a particular path or outcome
You ain't sure, now, was that the intention?
Uncertainty about the intended outcome or direction
Pre - Chorus:
Section transition
Close my eyes, I think of times
Recalling past experiences while feeling mentally conflicted
And this memory's twisting my head
Memories causing mental turmoil or confusion
I've got a feelin' that it's all not over yet
Sense that events or situations are not concluded
I've got some things that I just cannot forget
Some experiences are unforgettable or persistent
Chorus:
Section transition
All I do is think of you, you've got me on the run
Constantly thinking about someone, feeling pursued or chased
On the run, on the run
Repetition of feeling pursued or chased
On the run, on the run
-Look out, look out, look out, look out
Repetition of caution or warning, introspection, and vigilance
Look in, look in, look in
-Look out, look out, look out, look out
-Look in, look in, look in
-Looking round, you can take it or leave it
Assessing a situation with the choice to accept or reject it
You got a feeling but you must believe it
Belief is necessary for a feeling to become certainty
All you do is constantly changing
Constantly adapting or evolving
You feel a rise and it's already fading
Feelings or situations reaching a peak and then diminishing
Pre - Chorus + Chorus:
Transition with a blend of previous elements
(Guitar Solo)
Instrumental section
It's taken so long for the sun to appear,
Repetition of the theme of the sun's appearance, clarity, and proximity of what is needed
(look in, look in, look in, look out)
-Now the blue sky above is so clear,
-(look out, look out, look out, look in)
-And everything you need is so near
-(look in, look in, look in, look in, look in, look out)
-It's taken so long for the sun to appear,
-(look in, look in, look in, look out)
-Now the blue sky above is so clear,
-(look out, look out, look out, look in)
-Oh, and everything you need is so near
-(look in, look in, look in, look out, look in)
