I dripping faucet
  A crying child
  A laughing woman
  With a toothless smile
  A burning building
  A naked doll with outstretched hand
  And a black lace shawl
  A hot breath whisper
  A wilted flower, yellowed paper
  The last church hour
  A polished stone
  A tarnished dime
  An open window
  A shoe that shines
  
  Chorus
  You run, run, run
  You run, run, run
  
  A whiskey glass
  A candle flame
  A faded picture
  In a broken frame
  A purple heart
  A bayonette
  A German gun
  A letter sent
  A clock that?s stopped
  A wooden pipe
  A poison bottle
  A Barlow knife
  A bag of teeth
  A lock of hair
  An old guitar
  No time so spare
