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
 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'll 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
 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, button your lip
 And there's a sense of doubt
 When the roads are out
 You say that you'll never be there
 So button, 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
 You're running scared
 We're on a hiding to nowhere
