Running away through the nights so black
The stars on the shoulder are pulling me back
Whispers of you ringing through my ears
Trying to forget all the wasted tears

And all your lies in your blue eyes
Another day goes by and all I can say is

Oooh
Wish I could forget you
But you keep coming back
You're running away through the nights so black
The stars on your shoulder are pulling you back
Maybe you can forget
But I just can't

One day I'm here and one day I'm there
Some days I wake up and just don't know where
I've seen the lights on the city streets
I'm wide awake while the world still sleeps

In all my dreams, the picture freezes
And every night it's always the same

Oooh
Wish I could forget you
But you keep coming back
You're running away through the nights so black
The stars on your shoulder are pulling you back
Maybe you can forget
But I just can't

No, I just can't
No, I just can't
I just can't

Running away through the nights so black
The stars on the shoulder are pulling me back
Whispers of you ringing through my ears
Trying to forget all the wasted tears

Oooh
Wish I could forget you
But you keep coming back
You keep coming back

Oooh
Wish I could forget you
I just can't
