Know You've Got to Run (Live at Berkeley 1971)

Know you got to run
Know you got to hide
Don't know who to follow
Who is on your side
Don't know where you're going
You won't talk of where you've been
And I may see you tomorrow
Never more again

Seen you in the cities
Seen you on the road
Face is all a twisted
'Cause your brain's a heavy load
Then you turn and ask me
How will I ever know
You talk about your seeking
But I see it's all for show

Heard your mournful song
Heard your baleful cry
Seen the light of hunger
Lingering deep within your eyes
Always be running
Talk about your sinking
What a hole you're in
Except for me to love you
When you hate yourself, my friend

And you got yourself a potion
For to keep you from your sleep
In the dark and lonely hours
I heard you laugh and weep
Always be runnin'
Until you find your doom
Never face your lonely soul
Never face the gloom

Know you got to run
And you know you got to hide
Still there is a great light
There underneath, within your eye
Open up, open up
Come on and let me in
When you can love yourself
Honey, I can love you then
