Run Into the Night (Reggae Version)
Reggae-rock fusion with a prominent skank guitar rhythm and soulful male vocals. The arrangement features a clean electric guitar playing staccato upstrokes on the offbeats, a melodic bass guitar with a warm tone, and a standard drum kit with a crisp snare and active hi-hat patterns. A Hammond-style organ provides sustained chordal pads and occasional rhythmic stabs. The lead male vocal is powerful and expressive, frequently utilizing melisma and ad-libs, supported by layered vocal harmonies in the chorus. The tempo is 145 BPM in the key of G major. The track features a breakdown with a guitar solo characterized by bluesy bends and a slightly overdriven tone.

Lyrics
INTRO
Ooh, woah… yeah, yeah
Skank it up… ooh, woah
Come on, come on… ooh, woah
Alright now… ooh, woah
VERSE 1
If I could see the thoughts you hide from sight
Hide from sight, hide from sight
Each hidden fear inside I’d bring to light,
(Bring to light),
Bring to light, bring to light, oh yeah
Would I find peace behind your wall of stone
(wall of stone)
Wall of stone, (wall of stone), wall of stone
Or face the tide where all your doubts have grown?
(Have grown)
Have grown, yeah
Ooh, woah… (easy, easy)
Tell me now… ooh, woah
VERSE 2
If I could hear the words you leave unsaid
(leave unsaid) Leave unsaid,
(leave unsaid) Leave unsaid,
Would all your quiet storms be put to bed
(put to bed) Put to bed, (put to bed),
Put to bed, oh yeah
Would you let me reach where shadows burn
Shadows burn, shadows burn
Or keep me locked till guarded walls return?
Return, return, yeah
Ooh, woah… sing it… ooh, woah
CHORUS
You run into the night, I feel your fire
Feel your fire, feel your fire, yeah
A silent voice that burns with clear desire
Clear desire, desire, oh yeah
You hide away from dawn, I see your glow
See your glow, see your glow
Your secret heart still tells me where to go
Where to go, where to go, alright
Ooh, woah… come on… ooh, woah
BRIDGE
Old echoes in your mind like ghosts of time
(ghosts of time)
Ghosts of time, (ghosts of time)
Ghosts of time, yeah
The truths you do not speak still call you mine
(call you mine)
Call you mine, call you mine, oh yeah
If I could hold your thoughts within my hands
(In my hands),
In my hands, in my hands
Would I still choose to walk your shifting sands
(Shifting sands)
Shifting sands, (shifting sands)
Shifting sands, yeah
Ooh, woah… easy skank… ooh, woah
CHORUS
You run into the night, I feel your fire
Feel your fire, feel your fire, yeah
A silent voice that burns with clear desire
Clear desire, desire, oh yeah
You hide away from dawn, I see your glow
See your glow, see your glow
Your secret heart still tells me where to go
Where to go, where to go, alright
Ooh, woah… skank it… ooh, woah
Ooh, woah… come on, come on
Ooh, woah… yeah, yeah
OUTRO
Skank… skank… easy now… yeah
End.
