Seven Years of Letters

If you say go

There's a chance that we're running scared

When they say you'll never be there

In the dress that you'll never wear

It's a sorry affair

We're on a hiding to nowhere

It's only right to swear

And they pray that I won't answer you back

It's the dance that we'll never share

And the alarms that you can't do without

We're running scared

We're on a hiding to nowhere

No, no, no

It takes a chance, a truth or dare

Is there a chance your lover be spared

If we say that we're running scared

It's a sorry affair

We're on a hiding to nowhere

It's only right to swear

And they say that I won't answer you back

It's the dance that we'll never share

And the alarms that you can't do without

We're running scared

We're on a hiding to nowhere

So you button, you button your lip

And you button, you button your lip

You button, you button your lip

And there's a sense of doubt

When the roads are out

You say that you'll never be there

So you button, you button your lip

If you say go

There's a chance that we're running scared

When they say you'll never be there

In the dress that you'll never wear

So you button, you button your lip

And you button, you button your lip

We're on a hiding to nowhere

And they say that I won't answer you back

It's the dance that we'll never share

And the alarms that you can't do without

We're running scared

We're on a hiding to nowhere
