I Ran
BOGA Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I walked along the avenue
I never I thought meet someone like you
Meet someone like you
With auburn hair and tawny eyes
The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through
Hypnotize me through
And I ran
I ran so far away

I just ran
I ran all night and day
I could'nt get away
I could'nt get away

Reach out a hand to touch a face
You slowy disappearing from my view

I walked along the avenue
I was strolling down the street

I never thought meet someone like you
I didn't expect to encounter someone like you

Meet someone like you
I met you

With auburn hair and tawny eyes
You have reddish-brown hair and yellowish-brown eyes

The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through
Your eyes are so captivating that they mesmerize me

And I ran
I started to run

I ran so far away
I kept running a long distance away from you

I just ran
All I did was run

I ran all night and day
I ran constantly, without stopping, throughout the night and day

I couldn't get away
Despite running, I couldn't escape my feelings for you
