(Lisa Lougheed Cover)
This band called Cygnets did a pretty good cover of the original song "Run with Us" previously performed by Lisa Lougheed!
Although the original will always be my favorite for all eternity, this cover retains the 80s vibe , including the catchy background chorus!
The song was taken from the album "A Dark Chapter In Our History : The Singles" released in 2021...I also included the instrumental/karaoke version with backing vocals for the delight of those who want to sing it!
About the band:
Cygnets were a 3-piece Synth-Pop band from Canada!
They released 20 music videos and 6 albums in their decade-long career!
Lyrics:
"When darkness falls,
Leaving shadows in the night,
Don't be afraid,
Wipe that fear from your eyes.
If a desperate love,
Keeps on driving you wrong,
Don't be afraid,
You're not alone.
Chorus
You can run with us,
We've got everything you need,
Run with us,
We are free.
Come with us,
I see passion in your eyes,
Run with us.
When the cold wind blows,
Turn your collar to the cold,
Don't be ashamed,
If you need someone to hold.
If you're sinking in quicksand,
And it's dragging you down,
And you feel you're going under,
We'll be around.
Chorus
You can run with us,
We've got everything you need,
Run with us,
We are free.
Come with us,
I see passion in your eyes,
Run with us.
Short instrumental break
When you're behind closed doors,
All alone by yourself,
And you're longing inside,
To be somebody else.
You pick up the telephone,
And there's no one on the line,
Don't be afraid,
'Cause there's still time.
Chorus
You can run with us,
We've got everything you need,
Run with us,
We are free.
Come with us,
I see passion in your eyes,
Run with us.
Repeat Chorus
Run with us!"
