ROBERT FRANCIS
- Keep On Running Lyrics / with translationsI heard you knocking at my back door.
You said your family’s gone, you can’t help me anymore.
I heard you knocking, I heard you say, it’s not funny that things have to turn out this way.
I broke out into the night for something out of sight, kept moving faster.
Decisions I made, losing you to the narrowing light.
I always loved you, you knew I always loved you.
Oncoming traffic, fading into...
The end of the world, you know I’ll keep on running.
We gotta get out of here before the cops start coming.
I held a job for a while, to keep you happy, to keep you laughing.
I knew it wasn’t enough, I could not keep acting tough.
And I would find you, just the way I raised you, those pale green eyes, burning into...
You said your family’s gone, you can’t help me anymore.
I heard you knocking, I heard you say, it’s not funny that things have to turn out this way.
I broke out into the night for something out of sight, kept moving faster.
Decisions I made, losing you to the narrowing light.
I always loved you, you knew I always loved you.
Oncoming traffic, fading into...
We gotta get out of here before the cops start coming.
I held a job for a while, to keep you happy, to keep you laughing.
I knew it wasn’t enough, I could not keep acting tough.
And I would find you, just the way I raised you, those pale green eyes, burning into...
