Thee Sacred Souls 'Running Away'

Follow Thee Sacred Souls

[pentiumguy]

This gives a lot of the late 60s Marvin Gaye energy, especially the vocals.

[leolorona]

This 70+ year old LOVED their live performance at a recent concert. Love the smooth, slow songs but this uptempo song is stellar.

[hightreestess]

[sassyj]

Aw, shooky, shooky now! Giving that "Tighten Up" vibes. I like. Grew up with this sound around the house.

[DaJuice]

[nekroeddie]

he's used to getting hurt
by all the girls
they try his world
for just a season

and now he's got a good girl(good girl)
and she wants to stay
oh, but he's gotta go
for his own reasons

he's running
(running, running, running, running away)
yes, he's running
Running away
He's running
(running, running, running, running away)
Oh, he's running away

he says to her(he says to her)
he says it's hard to be
(so hard to be true)
true to you and true to me
(listen to your heart)
i hear a voice
it wont stop saying
(set it free)
it's saying i need to set us both free

he's running
(running, running, running, running away)
he's running
he's running away
He's running
(running, running, running, running away)
Oh, he's running away

(he didn't mean)
He didn't mean to break your heart
(to break your heart)
Oh, it's eating him up inside
(he didnt mean)
He didn't mean to make you cry
(to break your heart)


running, running, running, running away
He's running away

Looking for answers
he may never find

What if he never tries
Ready, set, there he goes
leaving his love for a lonely road
where's he gonna go? where no one knows
How's he gonna get there? on his toes
he's running

This will get played at our next Northern Soul event, such a great track.
If it had a little vinyl pop and hiss on the track you would think it was fifty plus years old.

Love it! So glad to see comparisons to Marvin Gaye and Archie Bell & the Drells in other comments here. Also reminds me of Curtis Mayfield and The Impressions.
