Why! Aaaaaaaaaah!!!!
I walk 10,000 miles on this highway
I've been searching for you
But you're always one step ahead of me
I turn left you turn right
I see the dust of your heels blistering the night
I turn up at your gambling den
But guess what?
You left again -
I guess somewhere you're up ahead of me
I guess somewhere you're on a road that I can't see!
Why don't you stop!
(where are you?)
And face what you got
(where are you?)
Why don't you stop
And face up to what you got coming?
Running away from me...
Why don't you stop!
Running away from me?
I tracked you down to your mountain hideaway
But guess what?
You got away again!
I guess you're someway ahead of me?
I guess you're some place I can't see.
Why don't you stop!
(where are you?)
And face me?
(where are you?)
Why don't you stop
Running away from me?
I tracked you down to your last campsite
But guess what?
There you go! Out of sight!
Riding into the night.
Out of sight.
Riding into the dark of the night.
Why don't you stop!
(where are you?)
Running away from me>
(where are you?)
Why don't you stop
Running away!
You're like a shadow on the walls of time
But one day soon I'm gonna catch you...
Then shine my light
On your soul.
