Bonnie Raitt - Run Like A Thief lyrics

rate me

Well it was alright at midnight and you fell out at three<br />

So I made you warm and stoked the dying fire<br />

When it all came down this morning you were lying next to me<br />

How sweet the wine of desire<br />

<br />

Well we cheated on a friend and cheaters never win<br />

Oh the truth I know would be a small relief<br />

I could never be the one to say<br />

Her best friend took you down<br />

<br />

Gonna run in the night hide when ever it's light<br />

Gonna run in the night like a thief<br />

<br />

Just ain't no use think it over I was blind but now I see<br />

Well she's coming back and I know just what I'll do<br />

If it comes right down to you leaving her or staying here with me<br />

How sweet the memory of you<br />

<br />

Well we cheated on a friend and it looks like I lose again<br />

I could never be the one to say<br />

Her best friend took you down<br />

<br />

I'd rather run in the night hide when ever it's light<br />

Gonna run in the night like a thief<br />

Like a thief in the night hide when ever it's light<br />

Gonna run in the night like a thief
