Lyrics

One affair won't make a lover
Kisses never meant that you were givin' up your soul
I want to taste the spice of another
I wanna' taste my life, so, I remember when I'm old
Why I'm ..

I'm runnin' through my lifetime
You can see it your way and I'll see it mine
I'm runnin' through my lifetime
I've got to stay out in the race so I don't go out of my mind

Hunger in the eyes of the teacher
Today he wants to feel the things his mamma made him hide
Now its comin out all over that old preacher
Livin' never meant no more than waitin til' he dies
So I'm ..

I'm runnin' through my lifetime
I'm runnin' fast, I won't get far behind
I'm runnin' through my lifetime
I've got to stay out in the race so I don't go out of my mind

Beware! beware!
I'm a friend to those who share me and I'm a threat to those who dare me
Beware! beware!
I can help if you need me and I can run if you try to keep me

I'm runnin' through my lifetime
You can see it your way and I'll see it mine
I'm runnin' through my lifetime
I've got to stay out in the race so I don't know go out of my mind

I'm runnin', I'm runnin', runnin', runnin'
Runnin'
...?
Runnin'
Runnin'
... kisses never meant that I would give you my soul
Runnin'
Runnin'
... I want to taste the spice
Runnin'
... I want to taste my life
Runnin'
So, I'll remember when I'm old
Runnin'
Runnin'
...?
Runnin'
...?
Runnin'
...?
Runnin'
