Just My Imagination Running Away With Me Live 1981 by The Rolling Stones Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
I look out my window watch her as she passes by
I say to myself I'm such a lucky guy
To have a girl like her is a dream come true
And of all the girls in New York she loves me true
[Chorus]
It was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
[Verse 2]
Soon we’ll be married and raise a family
(Won't that be cute?)
Two boys for you, what about two girls for me
I tell you I'm, I’m just a fellow with a one track mind
Whatever it is I want, I seek and I shall find
I'll tell you
[Chorus]
It was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
One more time
It was just my imagination, once again, yeah
Running away with me
Yeah, just my imagination
Running away with me
[Guitar Solo 1]
[Verse 3]
Every night I hope and pray
Dear lord, hear my plea
Don't ever let another take her love from me
Or I will surely die (Yes!)
Her love is ecstasy
When her arms enfold me
I hear her tender rhapsody
But in reality, she doesn't fucking know me
[Chorus]
Just my imagination, yeah
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
It was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
Yeah, just my imagination, yeah
Running away with me
[Guitar Solo 2]
[Instrumental Outro]
[Audience Applause]
[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
We're gonna do a couple of old songs for you we never recorded before. So here's hoping they go right. The first one's from the '50s. It was done by Eddie Cochran. And the second one is by Smoke Robinson. The first one’s called "Twenty Flight Rock"
[Verse 1]
I look out my window watch her as she passes by
I say to myself I'm such a lucky guy

Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
