Nowhere to Run, Nowhere to Hide

By Bbenzon @bbenzon
As I've said previously, one of the arguments about posting to Academia.edu is that one shouldn't because, CAPITALISM! Alas, capitalism is pervasive. An old song by Martha and the Vandellas speaks to the issue:

Here's the lyrics:
Nowhere to run, baby nowhere to hide I got nowhere to run, baby nowhere to hide It's not love, I'm running from It's the heartaches, I know will come 'Cause I know, you're no good for me But you've become a part of me Everywhere I go, your face I see Every step I take, you take with me, yeah Nowhere to run, baby, nowhere to hide Got nowhere to run, baby nowhere to hide I know you're no good for me, now But free of you I'll never be, no Each night as I sleep into my heart you creep I wake up feeling sorry I met you, hoping soon that I'll forget you When I look in the mirror and comb my hair I see your face just a-smiling there Nowhere to run, baby nowhere to hide Got nowhere to run, baby nowhere to hide I know you're no good for me But free of you, I'll never be How can I fight a lover that's sugar sweet When it's so deep, so deep, deep inside of me My love reaches so high, you can't get over it So wide, you can't get around, no Nowhere to run, baby nowhere to hide Got nowhere to run, baby nowhere to hide I know you're no good for me But free of you I'll never be Nowhere to run to, baby nowhere to hide Got nowhere to run to, baby nowhere to hide Nowhere to run
