Oh, isn't it easy?
You don't have to try
I guess it must be easy makin' other people cry
Oh Lord, it was something
We were havin' so much fun
Just when I started smilin', why did you have to run?

Why's everybody running?
Seems like we're always running
Why's everybody running away?
(Seems like we're always running)
Why's everybody running?
Seems like we're always running

Oh Lord, it's crazy
You know we've been through this before
One of us says "I love you" and the other one's out the door
Uh huh

Oh, first we say goodbye, then we all go home and cry
"I'm on my own"
Oh, how you gonna live if you don't learn to give?
You'll be all alone

Oh, isn't it easy
When you love somebody, you love somebody
Then leave somebody alone?
But then, it's not so easy to be left out on your own
Oh no

Can you tell me?
Why's everybody running?
It seems like we're always running
Why's everybody running away?
(Seems like we're always running)
Why's everybody running?
Seems like we're always running
Why's everybody running away?
(Seems like we're always running)

Why's everybody running?
Seems like we're always running
Why's everybody running away?
(Seems like we're always running) Well, I just can't stay
Why's everybody running?
Seems like we're always running
Why's everybody run away?
(Seems like we're always running)

Why's everybody running?
Seems like we're always running
Why's everybody running away?
(Seems like we're always running) Well, I just can't stay
Why's everybody running?
Seems like we're always running
