Running away through the nights so black
The stars on my shoulder are pulling me back
Whispers of you ring through my ears
Trying to forget the wasted tears
And all your lies in your blue eyes
Another day goes by and all I can say is

Ooh, wish I could forget you, ooh
But you keep coming back
You're running away through the nights so black
The stars on your shoulder are pulling you back
Maybe you can forget, but I just can't

One day I'm here and one day I'm there
Some days I wake up and just don't know where
I see the lights on the city streets
I'm wide awake while the world still sleeps
In all my dreams the picture freezes
And every night it's always the same

Ooh, wish I could forget you, ooh
But you keep coming back
You're running away through the nights so black
The stars on your shoulder are pulling you back
Maybe you can forget, but I just can't
No I just can't
No I just can't
I just can't

Running away through the nights so black
The stars on my shoulder are pulling me back
Whispers of you ring through my ears
Trying to forget the wasted tears

Ooh, wish I could forget you, ooh
But you keep coming back
You keep coming back
Ooh, wish I could forget you, ooh
I just can't
