I know I told you all this before I'm gonna tell it to you once more I'm packin' up, I'm leavin' I'm leavin' this town today At last I'm on my way You wanna take and you wanna give Well, in this town is no place to live It kicks you down, eats you up, and it won't stop Until you go And for me it's time, so... I know you don't believe me I know you think I'm wrong Just pack your things and Come along 'cause The feeling that I have Is that we're running late There are no places that I gotta go There are no people that I gotta know Just the world of so much more Than I ever had before Outside that door It's up to you, but I don't want you to stay And watch your chances fade away
And when you're old, you get cold When you ask yourself how and why You never dared to try, but... I know you don't believe me I know you think I'm wrong Just pack your things and Come along 'cause The feeling that I have Is that we're running late So we've been running these streets together We always said that it would be forever But now we don't run, we thought we won, we just Lost our feet To these city streets, and... I know you don't believe me I know you think I'm wrong Just pack your things and Come along 'cause You know what? We're running late We're running late We're running late We're running late
