Teach me English (cover)?

My first language is Japanese.

I often hear, Run for cover.

What does it mean?

Thank you in advance!

like when people with guns are shooting I'll tell you take cover or run for cover...

To Run for cover is to go to the nearest hiding place you can find, to conceal or protect yourself from something dangerous.
