Gone away and hide your eyes
Stay for me with no disguise
We should fall, still we can rise
Lay it down, your heart, tonight
Try to imagine your soul set free
Let it go and run to me
You've got my heart, now take my life
Lay it down, my love
Chorus
Runaway, runaway, runaway to me
Runaway, darlin' won't you stay with me
Runaway, runaway, runaway to me
Now I will back you up
You can hear the time slippin' away
You cry the tears for today
She screams come inside, but you can't stay
Lay it down, my love
Runaway, runaway, runaway to me
Runaway, darlin' won't you stay with me
Now I will back you up
Hey, I will back you up
Hey, I will back you up
Everyone's around us now
But still we only hear one sound
It's so intense, you just can't breathe
Lay it down, my love...
Nobody said it would be easy
Nobody gives you guarantees
'Cos a heart can always be broken
And there can be no loving without tears
Runaway to a place where nobody knows
Runaway gotta let this feeling go
Runaway if I can't find love,
I'm gonna runaway
Nobody's looking for perfection
How could they give it in return
But I told my heart to believe you
And you just gave your love to anyone
Runaway to a place where nobody knows
Runaway gotta let this feeling go
Runaway and I don't want to hurt anymore
Though my heart is always aching
If I can't find love,
Out on the highway all alone
Gonna try and make it on your own
You're just a kid but you're getting old
Too many years out in the cold
Your daddy doesn't know your name
Your mommy's taking all the blame
She drinks too much and she's never home
Pack your bags and hit the road
Chorus
Now you're a Runaway
Yes, you're a Runaway
Runaway from everything you've known
Runaway, yeah you're a Runaway
Runaway and you're not even grown
Yes, you're a Runaway
You wish the cops would come and say
Gonna' take you home today
But you know the cops will never come
They won't even know you're on the run
So keep your face turned to the wind
Take every shot on the chin
Just when you think you've had enough
That's when it all gets rough
Now you're a Runaway
Yes, you're a Runaway
Runaway from everything you've known
Runaway, yeah you're a Runaway
Runaway from all those years
Runaway from all those tears
Runaway and you're not even grown
Can I get a minute
And a couple of seconds
Of your time
I know you probably hear
This everyday
No I ain't trying to come up at you
With a slick line
No no just listen to what I gotta say
Just one look at you
And I can tell that we
Click so perfectly
But how can I put into words
The way you make me feel inside
Butterflies, goosebumps, euphoria
Putting my emotions to work
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
Away
Girl I never seen an aura
With a brighter shine
I love the energy you radiate
No I don't wanna push myself
Across your borderline
But I just can't let you slip away
Just one look at you
And I can tell that we
Click so perfectly
But how can I put into words
The way you make me feel inside
Butterflies, goosebumps, euphoria
Putting my emotions to work
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
Away
Runaway runaway
Runaway runaway
Away
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
(Instrumental)
No one said this would be easy, easy
And no one said that you werent right, right
You always stop to think about the way things were
But whats good is gone
And nows your time to try and run away
The last time you ran away
You said youd be back again
Its the last time youd run away
Youre never going back to him, no
You lose yourself into your mirror, its clearer
You use your make up to cover up your life
You always stop to think about the way things were
But whats good is gone
And nows your time to try and run away
Last time you ran away
You said youd be back again
Its the last time youd run away
Youre never going back to him, no
Cuz the pressures got you
And you cant fight, fight no more
Cuz the pressures got you
And you cant fight, fight
Its the last time, the last time
The last time you ran away
You said youd be back again
The last time youd run away
Youre never going back to him, no
The last time you ran away
You said youd be back again
The last time youd run away
No need to talk it out
Around the walkabout
It takes your breath away
Takes it so far away
Nowhere we have to be
One for the company
Oh look, a runaway
A Roman holiday
We could trade places A B C
Cover the bases 1 2 3
I could be you and you'd be me
Go in, go out, go in, go out – yeah
Set the alarm for Fri, Sat, Sun
Beating the countdown, jump the gun
Paradise lost and look who won
Go in, go out, go in, go out – yeah
The bastard of the brood
Living in solitude
They threw it all away
And took a holiday
You ask so pretty please
To get ahead of me
Oh yes, oh probably
So much for subtlety
We could trade places A B C
Cover the bases 1 2 3
I could be you and you'd be me
Go in, go out, go in, go out – yeah
Set the alarm for Fri, Sat, Sun
Beating the countdown, jump the gun
Paradise lost and look who won
Go in, go out, go in, go out – yeah
If I had it my way, my way again
It would come in a spray
Make tomorrow today, today again
Make tomorrow today
If I had it my way, my way again
It would come in a spray
Make tomorrow today, today again
Make tomorrow today
We could trade places A B C
Cover the bases 1 2 3
I could be you and you'd be me
Go in, go out, go in, go out – yeah
Set the alarm for Fri, Sat, Sun
Beating the countdown, jump the gun
Paradise lost and look who won
(Anderson/Cichon)
A love like ours is slightly out of time here
We need to find a way to set our souls free
Oh come away if you wanna know
A perfect place
Where only love grows
Moon and tide sing a song never ceasing
Sad souls cry out for the love of the sea
Oh come away if you wanna know
A perfect place
Where only love grows
CHORUS
Runaway and love will grow while we're waiting
Runaway find an easier way
Runaway from the end of all reason
Runaway we gotta do it today
Wax and wane flows
The sea never ending
Sails in the wind
Singing come unto me
Come
Oh come away if you wanna know
A perfect place
Where our love grows
Repeat CHORUS X3
You got a longing inside you that's never satisfied
A hunger that your heart cannot deny
You wanna break out and find out what's right outside
your door
Well you don't have to wait here any more
You could leave everything
If you're ready come with me
I'm a runaway, on my way to something better
I could never stay once I had a taste of heaven
You say you wanna be free, then be a runaway with me
There is a moment when you know it like you never did
before
And the weight you carried fell right through the floor
You've got to see it to believe it, everything you
didn't have
And once you do you're never looking back
Cause light can't live inside the dark
Let the world know who you are
I'm a runaway, on my way to something better
I could never stay once I had a taste of heaven
You say you wanna be free, then be a runaway with me
We're not from here
We were born to run away
We're lost but found
We were born to run away
Into the light
We were born to run away
We're not from here
We were born to run away
We're lost but found
We were born to run away
Into the light
We were born to run away and run away...
I'm a runaway, on my way to something better
I could never stay once I had a taste of heaven
You say you wanna be free, then be a runaway with me
We're not from here
We were born to run away
We're lost but found
We were born to run away
Into the light
As I walk along I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of the things
We've done together while our hearts were young
I'm a walking in the rain, to the bone I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me to end this misery
And I wonder, I w-w-wonder, why, you ran away
And I wonder if you will stay, my little runaway, my runaway
I'm a walking in the rain, to the bone I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me to end this misery
And I wonder, I w-w-wonder baby yeah, you know why, you ran away
And I wonder if you will stay, my little runaway, my little runaway
Come back baby
(Run, run, runaway)
You left me standing in the rain
(Run, run, runaway)
Come back baby
(Run, run, runaway)
Standing in the rain
Driving down the interstate
I took your car
40 ounce between your legs
Shakin up my heart
Turn around and look at me
Light another smoke
Sweet, sweet are the innocent
I love you, let's run away
I love you, let's run away
You told me everything
You only know how to play
No one likes the sunny rain
And I hate my job
Sweet, sweet are the innocent
I love you, let's run away
I love you, let's run away
I told you everything
What did you do? You only smile
You call me every day
You're shakin up my heart
Sweet, sweet are the innocent, innocent
I love you, let's run away
I love you, let's run away
Welcome to the end
Of everything that haunts me
Somehow I pretend
All was meant to be
I am not the saint here
Never the good son
Hell has taken over and I know
When I say “Go”, runaway, runaway
Where do I belong?
So sick of being shadows
Scared to walk alone
Now it’s time to roam
I have always wanted
All that I could own
Come on boy, I wanna dance now
Line by line we talk all night, yeah
Hold me down, I think, I'm flying
Everybody's eyes are shining
Runaway to where the world is fine
Hold on boy, you're falling fast now
Line by line you go no where, yeah
Drag me down I feel, I'm sinking
Can't relate to what you're thinking
Runaway to where the sun don't shine
Hello, hello, are you still there?
You don't answer me 'cause you just don't care
Act so young but you look so old
And you're too far gone to find your own way home
Life's so hard for you to handle
You can't live without your devil
Boy, you think that you're so special
Well, life is hard for everyone, believe me
Hello, hello, do you still care?
You don't answer me 'cause there's no one there
Run away from your own sweet soul
And you're too far gone to find your own way home
Hello, hello, are you still there?
You don't answer me 'cause you just don't care
Act so young but you look so old
People run away
and don´t look back
But even in their eyes
you see the wrong track
People lost their dreams
they´re not as right as rain
And even in their eyes
you sense the pain
Run away
and your dreams will fade away
Believe in you
it´s easier to stay
Run away
and you will never find the end
Your fears will fade away
when you will stay
People live their life
they take on challenges
Even in their eyes
you see no fear
People live their dreams
they are as right as rain
And even in their eyes
To my people doing time
To my people rest in peace
Y'all ready for the refugee camp?
Introducing Earth, Wind and Fire
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on, come on, come on, come on
No money in my pocket gotta get a no limit
So I became America's most wanted
All I ever wanted was a fancy car
A crib for my mom and a master card
Baby you know how it's in Hollywood
New cop flicks with Clint Eastwood
Went from a teen to a young adult
No excuses it ain't my fault
Runaway, we living like runaways
Wake up, stretching in the morning, yawning
Trying to make it through the day
Brush my teeth, hit the streets
Where there's heat we afford to beef
Hoping one day we don't have to run away
I didn't want to runaway
But I had to get a way yo
We didn't want to runaway
But we had to get away yo
I didn't want to leave astray
But sometimes I gotta get away yo
I didn't want to go away
But I had to go away yo
Yo G and B where you at?
Momma came home from a hard days work
At day time a maid at night time a nurse
Work so hard to make sure we survived living a ghetto paradise
Sometimes I wake up screaming in the middle of the night
Hoping that darkness brings me light
Praying for that better day where we won't have to runaway
Runaway, we living like runaways
Wake up, stretching in the morning, yawning
Trying to make it through the day
Brush my teeth, hit the streets
Where there's heat we afford to beef
Hoping one day we don't have to run away
I didn't want to runaway
But I had to get a way yo
We didn't want to runaway
But we had to get away yo
I didn't want to leave astray
But sometimes I gotta get away yo
I didn't want to go away
But I had to go away yo
Ladies and gentleman Earth, Wind and Fire
Feeling Melly y'all
More peace y'all
Firm in y'all
Runaway, we living like runaways
Wake up, stretching in the morning, yawning
Trying to make it through the day
Brush my teeth, hit the streets
Where there's heat we afford to beef
Hoping one day we don't have to run away
I didn't want to runaway
But I had to get a way yo
We didn't want to runaway
But we had to get away yo
I didn't want to leave astray
But sometimes I gotta get away yo
I didn't want to go away
But I had to go away yo
I didn't want to runaway
But I had to get a way yo
We didn't want to runaway
But we had to get away yo
I didn't want to leave astray
But sometimes I gotta get away yo
I didn't want to go away
But I had to go away yo
Yo y'all gonna make me do it
I don't want to do it but here we go
Ain't no samples this is original baby
Put em up y'all, refugees
I want to see everybody's hand in the air right now
I'm a fool
To think that I could be with you
To think that I was just that cool
Cool enough to be with you
Tell the truth
Has your heart been painted black and blue?
Is this the reason you're so cruel?
Cruel just comes so easy to you
I'm gonna run soon as my feet touch the ground
I'm gonna scream with everyone in the crowd
I'm gonna run 'n hide, in the city tonight
Like a runaway, just like a runaway
I'm confused
I heard that you found somebody new
And I heard what he's been doing to you
How's it feel to deal with someone like you?
I'll survive
Not by fighting fire with lies
Cool or not, there's something inside
Cuz inside is what keeps us alive, keeps us alive
I'm gonna run soon as my feet touch the ground
I'm gonna scream with everyone in the crowd
I'm gonna run 'n hide, in the city tonight
Like a runaway, just like a runaway
Something 'bout the city lights
Makes every wrong feel so right
And takes you to different heights
Cuz we know love's a long hard fight
I'm gonna run soon as my feet touch the ground
I'm gonna scream with everyone in the crowd
I'm gonna run 'n hide, in the city tonight
Like a runaway, just like a runaway
( rossi / frost )
Riding on a high
Riding so high now I'm leaving
Am I running far from my own fears
I'm never facing up
I never face up to the reasons
And never showing any of my tears
Cos i
Leave out the back way
Not the way that I came in
Beacuse it seems like the logical way, at the time
And then I run, run, run
And seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run I'm a runaway
Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs
Take me far away
Take me away to an island
And leave me hear to cry in my own tears
Try me once again
Try me again when you're passing
Maybe I'll remember you in years
I can't go out the back way
Just the way that I came in
I hope it seems like the logical way, at the time
Beacuse I'll run, run, run
And seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run I'm a runaway
Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs
Looking for so long
But I am listening longer
I haven't seen or heard a thing from you
I can't stay here
I couldn't stay here if you paid me
I can't give you any guarantees
I won't
Go out the back way
Not the way that I came in
Beacuse it seems like the logical way, at the time
And then I run, run, run
And seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run I'm a runaway
Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs
Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs
I always will remember my needs
I said,i always will remember my needs
[Chorus:]
I just wanna go
Run away with you
Girl let's go and see
All the lovely things I wanna show you
Girl just come with me
You need someone that'll be there for you
To give you what you need
Let me be the one
[Verse 1:]
Loving you is all I ever wanna do girl
Cause no one else can make me feel that special way inside
And when you need someone to brighten up your rainy days
See you don't have to call cause I will be right by your side
Cause no one else can feel your needs the way I do girl
I've been watching you for quite a long time now
And let me take you on a journey through the clouds above
Tour the heavens, makin love all night
Just run away
[Chorus:]
I just wanna go
Run away with you
Girl let's go and see
All the lovely things I wanna show you
Girl just come with me
You need someone that'll be there for you
To give you what you need
Let me be the one
[Verse 2:]
No wrongs can change my feelings for I've grown to see through
And show no shame,
Even walk a mile deliver to you
You're so incredible
Your tenderness
No time for noone else
Cause you I trust the best
Give me your hand
Cause I just wanna run away with you
Our love won't end
Cause every day is a holiday
Give me your hand
Cause I just wanna run away with you
Our love won't end
Cause every day is a holiday
[Chorus: x2]
I just wanna go
Run away with you
Girl let's go and see
All the lovely things I wanna show you
Girl just come with me
You need someone that'll be there for you
To give you what you need
Let me be the one
[x2:]
Take my hand
I'll show you the way
Love is at your discretion
[Chorus:]
I just wanna go
Run away with you
Girl let's go and see
All the lovely things I wanna show you
Girl just come with me
You need someone that'll be there for you
To give you what you need
If you could read between the lines
You would know that time's not on our side
Gotta go, the world is moving, moving
Gotta go, the world is moving way too fast
So now what can I say?
Let's focus, let's focus
We can runaway, we can runaway
There's no reason why we should stay
We can runaway, we can runaway
'Coz there's no reason why we should stay
It's time to draw the line
Cross the borders and cross the signs
We live the lives to save ourselves
It's time to draw the lines
Cross the borders and cross the signs
We live our lives to save ourselves
So now what can I say?
Let's focus, let's focus
We can runaway, we can runaway
There's no reason why we should stay
We can runaway, we can runaway
'Coz there's no reason why we should stay
If we get there, we'll be okay
If we get there, we'll be okay
So now what can I say?
Let's focus, let's focus
We can runaway, we can runaway
There's no reason why we should stay
We can runaway, we can runaway
As I walk along I wonder a-what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on, I think of the things we've done
Together, a-while our hearts were young
I'm a-walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder
I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder
Ah-why-why-why-why-why she ran away
And I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway, run-run-run-run-runaway
[Musitron solo]
I'm a-walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder
I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder
Ah-why-why-why-why-why she ran away
And I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway, run-run-run-run-runaway
Justice League!
You've been on the run around
Another night, another town
A little weak, he beat you down
Until you fell and hit the ground
So you run around the block again
Another man, another friend
The little lies you tell yourself
To better sleep, but they never help
So you click your black heels three times
But you never get home
You're still there in his bed,
Feeling dirty and alone!
You're toss and turn cause
You know you don't belong
Lost inside this lonely fairytale gone wrong
[Chorus:]
So you wanna runaway
You always wanna run away
You always wanna run away
Hey, hey, hey
You don't wanna be alone
You never wanna be alone
But you know you gotta run yourself back home!
Got another baby on the way
A different girl, a different state
You couldn't bear to see her face
So you left a note, that you couldn't stay!
But you got nowhere to lay your head
Cause everywhere you've ever slept
You sure had your little fun
Then you got scared, and you had to run!
So you click your black heels three times
But you never get home
You spend all your days
Living like a Rolling Stone!
And now you wish you
Had somewhere to belong
Somebody that you could call your own!
[Chorus:]
And now you wanna runaway
You always wanna run away
You always wanna run away
Hey, hey, hey
Cause you don't wanna be alone
You never wanna be alone
You know you gotta run yourself back home!
Long since you saw your soul
Stranger in the mirror
Stand and stare at your dirty shoes
They've gotta get you off
You don't have to run away
You never have to run away
You never have to run away
You never have to run away, no, no, no!
You don't wanna be alone
You never wanna be alone
You know you gotta run yourself back home!
Run away, run away, you always wanna run away!
You don't wanna be alone, be alone
Cause you better run yourself back home!
You gotta run yourself back home
As I walk along I wonder
What went wrong with our love
A love that was so strong
And as I still walk on
I think of the things we done together
While our hearts were young
I'm a-walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder, I w-w-wonder, why
A w-w-why she ran away
And I wonder where she will stay
Runaway
So you say
See you again
Some other day
Feels like I knew you so well
But it's not that easy to tell
(chorus)
If I ever see you again
Yeah, runaway
Runaway
Could not stay
Till our bodies Turn to clay
Feels like I knew you so well
But it's not that easy to tell
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Hearing your voice in a dream
Telling me things are not as they seem
But will I every see you again,
I know you want it bad
The best you never had
You better set yourself free
Before it's too late and anyone can see
You're coming round just to get another round not where you wanna be you're running round just to get the run around gonna blow your heart away oh you got it down oh you're going down... you better run run run away
Addicted to the game
It's driving you insane
I've watched it pull you in
You got to know you're never gonna win
You're out somewhere and you're lost in the dark and you don't know why
You're looking for something to light your way but you just can't find
I see you're caught up in the chase but you're getting left behind
Ooooooh oh ooooh
Wooooah ooh oooooo
[Chorus]
For the longest time, I’ve been on my shine, I’m song
Now I’ll never let up I’ve been wanting this way too long,
Got me sitting toe high, trying to balance out the lows
And I think it’s time that I propose a toast
Let’s make a toast to the dickheads that boast ’cause we get bread toast to the bad b-tches that sh-t on their ass b-tches
Everybody think they’re Jordan so toast to the Pippens
Nobody’s the same but we know different
We all want this money right,
Everybody trying to eat like it’s money pie
I should live 100 lives I should have 100 wives
And the honey-beds, I should tell her 100 lies
Then I wonder why, when it’s all set and done
Tell me what will I become,
I wanna say that I did learn some, earn some,
Bad memories I did burn some
Sanitize my hands and let the germs gone
See you n-ggers is disgusting
Bad bitches worldwide wanna f-ck em
You see they treat my dick like lip balm
They know I hit hard, no concussion, come on
[Chorus]
For the longest time, I’ve been on my shine, I’m song
Now I’ll never let up I’ve been wanting this way too long,
Got me sitting toe high, trying to balance out the lows
And I think it’s time that I propose a toast
Let’s make a toast to the good times
Let’s have a toast for the cash flow
Make a toast to a new thang
On the arm of a bad hoe
Make a toast to the bad day
So we appreciate the sun rays
If you still don’t understand , stay away as far as you could
Stay away, stay away, stay away as far as you can X 3
Still don’t understand
Stay away as far as you can
Cause girl I’ve barely even know, scream loud for me
See I’m living life with no boundaries
But even a sunny day got clouds you see
I’m floating in the air, I live there
Laid back chair, call me song (?)
I got a big beach, you got a beach chair
I’m the big picture and you’re just a small square
But who am I to say I’m better man
I just want this sh-t forever man
Momma said there will be better days
But when better days came
I knew there were better thangs
Ahead of me, you telling me this everything
Now quit playing man where’s everything?
The women are amazing, the liquors always tasteful
The party off the chain
But emptiness remains, tell me where’s the love that I’m missing?
From an everyday kitchen, or a girl thats really down cause I know she’s been around
I feel like something wrong, but everything’s right
Hand quotes in the air read left right
I ain’t trying to bitch I’m living the blessed life
Would I trade it in motherf-cker? Yeah, right
Wack n-ggers can’t hit me nor see me
This is the graveyard, death sight
[Chorus]
For the longest time, I’ve been on my shine, I’m song
Now I’ll never let up I’ve been wanting this way too long,
Got me sitting toe high, trying to balance out the lows
And I think it’s time that I propose a toast
Let’s make a toast to the good times
Let’s have a toast for the cash flow
Make a toast to a new thang
On the arm of a bad hoe
Make a toast to the bad day
So we appreciate the sun rays
You still don’t understand , stay away as far as you could
Stay away, stay away, stay away as far as you can X 3
Still don’t understand
Stay away as far as you can
If I could stand on a cloud and speak out loud to the world below me
To play my name just so that they know me, you see the neighbors know my name
Even the haters love my fame, everybody plays my game
We’ve got mental hypocrisy at such high velocities
When I speak truth, everybody calls me Socrates
I’ve got such a philosophy that everybody’s watching me
Looking at they wrist, sh-t everybody’s clocking me
Ahhh, there’s no thrill like a slow kill
Standing at the bottom looking at the top
Hoping that they stop blocking me
If I had a day job n-ggers probably stayed dockin me
See I hate rules, if you said I obey, you ain’t ever know Trey
You ain’t know I’m season like obey
Do re mi sol fa la si do, toss it to the as-holes, exclude me through
Please, don’t involve me in that, see I’m a dignified man with a signified plan
As I walk along I wonder
what went wrong with our love
a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of
the things we've done together
while our hearts were young
I'm a-walkin' in the rain
tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
to end this misery
And I wonder, I wo-wo-wo-wo-wonder
Why, why-why-why-why-why she ran away
And I wonder, where she will stay
As I walk along I wonder
what went wrong with our love, a love that was so strong
and as i still walk on I think of the things we've done
together while our hearts were young
I'm a' walkin' in the rain, tears are fallin' and I feel
the pain
wishin' you were here by me to end this misery and I
wonder
I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder why
why-why-why-why-why she ran away and I wonder
where she will stay, my little runaway
run-run-run-run, runaway
I'm a' walkin' in the rain, tears are fallin' and I feel
the pain
wishin' you were here by me to end this misery and I
wonder
I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder why
why-why-why-why-why she ran away and i wonder

And I wonder a where she will stay
My little runaway
I've seen the world, been to many places
Made lots of friends, many different races
I've had such fun around the world it's true
African skies with a Nairobi mood
I fell asleep in Tuscany and dreamed
The one thing missing was you
Runaway with me my love,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Runaway with me my love,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I woke up with an Australian breeze
And danced the dance with Aborigines
Oh under the moon glow down in Mexico I dreamed
One thing was missing that's you
Runaway with me my love,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Runaway with me my love,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We'll sail the waters of many colours
We won't need a compass, love will guide our way
Don't need nobody, as long as we got each other
No need to hurry, we've got everyday
I wanna share the world with you, you see
Spring time in Paris feels so good to me
Oh this is for me reality
So please make all my wishes come true
Runaway with me my love,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And I just know we'll have a good time
It’s funny I never thought that I’d be homeless
I used to walk by them, now I’m living on the corners
Stretching for a touch of a hand, a dollar bill or a chance
Give me your sandwich bag, man I’ll do anything
With thoughts of desperation my hearts racing
I’m not star gazing I could die of starvation
Hallucinated from the day’s wasted
Lost track of time while my mind aging
People looking at me like a lost patient
Like I’m already dead why they all hating
Did I choose this life, or life choose me
I ran away at sweet 16 mommy do you miss me, this is Krissy
So I run, and I run, and I ran and I ran praying maybe some day we meet again
Cause It hurts when you hurt, and I hurt and I feel, like I’m healed can we all just make a mends
I run and I run and I run, and I run
Good bye to the world, good bye to my girl
Say hello to my home the street corner
Its absurd every word that was spoken
It must come alive cause my life is still broken
Wondering did I miss it, what mistake did I make? Can I fix it?
These streets of gone ballistic
This isn’t what I thought it would be, where’s daddy
Is he still mad at me, I wonder would he have me
Back in the home, back in the zone, back where I can’t eat
Where’s there’s heat and use a phone
Cause it hurts and I know I never said good bye
I ran away I thought like anything I could fly
Mom and dad are you there, are you listening
I want to come home, but scared of the mess I’m in
Please forgive me of the things I committed
Against you against me, our family tree
And I know we haven’t spoke in so long, I was so wrong
To think I could live on, on my own accord
I’m a take the train home, but I need to know
If you’ll welcome me back through your life’s door?
Show me a sign with a red ribbon, hang one on the side of the train building
And if I see it than I’ll know that your still willing,
And if not I won’t ever call or visit
I’ll pretend that I’m re-living the beginning,
Like when we used talk in the kitchen, without all the fights & friction
This is me wishing, one of your ex children
Picturing praying that you got the same feelings,
Dear insatiable,
We're watching while our future disappears.
It's damn regrettable.
There's nothing here to do to pass the years
But join the status quo.
And wait to die a mile away from here.
We just got to go now.
I will wait for you to run away.
I will take the chains that make you stay,
Break them off, and make our getaway...
So hold on, hold on tight.
Dear Miss all-the-way,
Will you regret when all that's left are scars?
And are we tempting fate,
Denying where we come from is who we are?
Yeah we will disobey,
And break the rules before they break our hearts.
We know who we are now.
We know who we are,
We know who we are now.
I will wait for you to run away.
I will take the chains that make you stay,
Break them off, and make our getaway...
So hold on, hold on tight.
Just hold on.
We've got to find our way out now before we become
All of our fear rolled into one.
You know we're not looking back now,
We've got to believe.
We're going to leave it all behind.
You'll see.
I will wait for you to run away.
I will take the chains that make you stay,
Break them off, and make our getaway.
So hold on.
I will wait for you to run away.
I will take the chains that make you stay,
Break them off, and make our getaway.
So hold on, hold on tight.
She wakes up in the morning
In the same room that she's been in her whole life
And everything still looks the same
But the feeling of the room has changed in spite
She said:
"You don't know what it's like to be stuck in my mind"
She said:
"You don't know what it's like to be stuck in my mind all the time"
Bruised lips and the make-up
Tattooed hips and pierced
For the sake of letting everybody know
She don't belong here
Old tricks that she made up
Attitude
I don't give a fuck
For the sake of letting everybody know
She says I won't belong So long
It's not a lost cause
She's just a runaway
Is there nothing left for you to say?
And if she comes home
Do you think she'll want to stay?
Is there anything for her?
She's a runaway
Turn your back on yesterday
She calls at seven thirty
And wants to talk about her boyfriend one last time
Mom and Dad are fighting in the background,
Shattered glass cuts through red wine
I said:
"I don't know that I'm right but I know that you're wrong"
Blacked out
Passed out at a party
In another town
With the same old Bacardi
Nothing ever changes what's inside me
Someone find me, someone find me
My heart showed me the way out
Don't stop
Don't give up on me now
Two beats, two streets
Oh it's a hard time
Just makin up your mind
You're tryin' so hard, so hard
To find answers
To the questions in your mind
It's confusing
Makes you want to cry
Oh you're sick of losing, losing
What you really need
Is just a little time
Why don't you run away
Let your spirit fly
Runaway, Runaway
Before losing your mind runaway
It takes a tough mind
A struggle deep inside
Oh it's such a fine line. Fine line
Between running away
Or standing up to fight
Been abused
But never knowing why
Now its time for choosing, choosing
What you should really do
Should ya just get up and fly
Oh why don't you run away
Let your spirit fly
Oh what ya hoping to find
Maybe peace of mind
Why don't you run away
I would leave My world behind
Give up everything that’s mine
If I could know you
I would leave behind My home
Enter your world all alone
If I could find you
It doesn’t matter if you run away
It doesn’t matter if you hide
I would leave my world far behind
This love inside of Me; it’s never gonna die
And I don’t care how far away you roam
No I don’t care how far away you roam
I’ll come running out with open arms to welcome you back home
I’ll come running out with open arms to welcome you back home
I would love to see our name
Engraved upon a picture frame
On my mantle
I would love to see your face
Every morning as you wake up
To see Me
I just wish that I could talk to you
Because I love you more than life
Behind the Song:
"This song was one of my first attempts at the treacherous art form of writing from God’s perspective. What is very interesting to me is how my theology has evolved since the time I wrote it. My original lyric But that won’t happen if you run away changed to It doesn’t matter if you run away. A line that said Until I find you wandering alone changed to I don’t care how far away you roam. I loved this song and wanted to record the original version as a little tribute to the past, but that would have meant singing lyrics that I didn’t really believe anymore. What I do believe is that it doesn’t matter if we run away or hide. I don’t believe that God can’t find us if we run away, and I don’t believe God has to search for us, as if He didn’t know exactly where we are and what we’re doing. Like the father of the prodigal son, He comes running out with open arms and always welcomes His wayward children back home." - Aaron Shust
Runaway, all alone, on these streets you call your home
Fade to black, painted smile
On these streets there cries a wounded child
On the run, shadows always falling
It's a high price that you pay
Runaway
This life that you choose
Leaves a burning in my heart
Runaway
It's a game that you lose
It can tear my soul apart
You're a Runaway,
You're a Runaway
Runaway, all alone, turns the corner toward a telephone
Pik it up, then call my name
Tell me when you want to end this game
On the run, shadows always falling
It's a high price that you pay
Runaway
This life that you choose
Leaves a burning in my heart
Runaway
It's a game that you lose
It can tear my soul apart
You're a Runaway,
You're a Runaway
You're a runaway, and you're harder than stone
You're a runaway
But are you woman enough not to be alone ?
You're a runaway, you gotta an angry heart
You're a runaway, and when you're ready baby
I'll let you finish what you start
Runaway
This life that you choose
Leaves a burning in my heart
Runaway
It's a game that you lose
It can tear my soul apart
You're a Runaway,
wicked hearts
where the violence starts
caused all the death
that i've seen so far since
Eden we've been cursed
and i know that i'm the worst
every thought in my mind is evil
and i hate all other people
there's no good in us at all
and i don't think we're able
whatever happened to my generation?
it all went to Hell
we stood as a nation
but a nation of lies where everyone dies
we fight amongst ourselves
brother against brother we kill one another
as men we're born to trouble yet
i stand without fear in the name of Christ
cause they tell me to
runaway come back and fight another day
runaway runaway come back and fight another day
deny my God and shut my mouth
curse my Lord and end my life
well how can i forget my King
the One who's given me everything
what a world we live in nothing prospers here
but division and the endless cries
for freedom well thet say we're free but this ain't freedom
our souls are bound forever
there's no where left to run to
we try to stand together but
even then we stand alone
whatever happened to my generation?
it all went to Hell
we stood as a nation
but a nation of lies where everyone dies
my eyes have seen the glory of
the coming of our Lord
Who's trampling out the vintage where those grapes of wrath are stored
the battles won
the victory's ours
in the name of the King
but it's clear to me
that my people have been blinded
to the truth
but they tell me to
runaway runaway come back and fight another day
runaway runaway come back and fight another day
runaway runaway come back and fight another day
runaway runaway come back and fight another day
no we're not running
with Jehovah's strength we're standing strong
no we're not running
[Verse 1]
Addicted to the fast living can't get enough of getting
cream
This shit is hereditary the hussling's in my genes
I had to the system's more corrupted then it seems
And in times I feel Obama's just a puppet on a string
It was worse I'm from a city where they hope I'm gonna
make it
Opportunity's there I'm just hoping someone take it
Took a different approach I'm provoking innovation
Looking forward to the moment that my flow can get
ovations
'Cause what they said out to achieve I been completed
I did best and slept on more than 10 per beat
How exact say catch on of what I feel is needed
I'm going hard to as Nas feel like a deal is needed
And now I'm reaching the shit that we all seek
In terms of fate I'm taking a large leap
And the mist of getting even I'm leaving them odds beat
The pavement followed this nigga
Big thanks to these cross trees
[Hook]
Can I live? but what does living really mean
In a world where nothing's never what it seems
Can I live? we just living out our dreams
There'd be times when I just wanna up and leave
Sometimes I wanna
Runaway, runaway
Sometimes I wanna
Runaway, runaway
There'd be times I wanna
Runaway (x5)
[Verse 2]
Ride both when you can self improve
Self acclaim titled from local niggas from no one knew
Dreams that I in vision as a child I'm moving closer to
How many can say they putting on only a chosen few
And I'm one of the three
To those who thought this shit was easy they're dumb as
they can be
They say it's lonely at the top but we come in to see
Plan to stay a while I hope you've got comfortable
seats
My nigga you can keep the fame 'cause my mind's on the
meal
When I get in shit that something only time will reveal
Shout out to my niggers that's declining them deals
I vow to retain the lawyer that provides in a peel
And it's because of y'all I speak these lyrics in the
booth
This the foundation I'm giving you the proof
The things I visualize I'm am driven of pursuit
Quest love state of mind I'm sticking to my roots
[Hook]
Can I live? but what does living really mean
In a world where nothing is never what it seems
Can I live? we just living out our dreams
There'd be times when I just wanna to up and leave
Sometimes I wanna
Runaway, runaway
Sometimes I wanna
Runaway, runaway
There'd be times I wanna
Can I get a minute
And a couple of seconds
Of your time
I know you probably hear
This everyday
No I ain't trying to come up at you
With a slick line
No no just listen to what I gotta say
Just one look at you
And I can tell that we
Click so perfectly
But how can I put into words
The way you make me feel inside
Butterflies, goosebumps, euphoria
Putting my emotions to work
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
Away
Girl I never seen an aura
With a brighter shine
I love the energy you radiate
No I don't wanna push myself
Across your borderline
But I just can't let you slip away
Just one look at you
And I can tell that we
Click so perfectly
But how can I put into words
The way you make me feel inside
Butterflies, goosebumps, euphoria
Putting my emotions to work
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
Away
Runaway runaway
Runaway runaway
Away
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
I wanna love you
So girl if you want to
We can runaway
Baby we can runaway
I spend my time these days just thinking of the past
I spend my time just wondering why it never lasted
I count the days 'til I can see you once again
If nothing else you're always my best friend
But I miss you now my friend
I long to kiss your smile again
Will you run, runaway with me
Leave your world behind?
Will you come, yeah, come and stay with me?
Just you and me until the end of time
Unlucky in love, well at least that's what they say
But it's gets so bad, sometimes I need to, need to runaway
I wanna ask you, will you run, yeah, runaway with me?
Runaway with me, baby
'Cos I'll look after you, oh baby
Baby, can't you see?
Will you run, runaway with me
Leave your world behind?
Will you come, yeah, come and stay with me?
Just you and me until the end of time, oh yeah
But I miss you now my friend
I long to kiss your smile again
Will you run, runaway with me
Leave your world behind?
Will you come, yeah
Come and stay with me
Until the end of time?
Will you run, runaway with me
Leave your world behind?
Will you come, yeah, come and stay with me?
Just you and me until the end of time, oh yeah
Hello?
Is my daughter there?
She's 15 years old
Blue eyes, blonde hair
She's been away from home 'bout two or three day
To locate Rikk Agnew in California
Write a letter to me on a random chance of receiving some reply
You get one, suddenly it's and insta-romance, but you're a stranger in my eyes
Pull your rotting roots and proceed to bail on a journey guaranteed
Did ya' ever stop to think I could go to jail for your adolescent need?
[Chorus:]
Runaway, why don't you stay
Back where you belong
Feel ya' gotta run, feel ya' gotta play
But you're really much too young
I understand your impulsiveness
I've been there once before
But you're so blind to the fucking mess
That your loved one's can't ignore
Calls from worried mom, detectives, and your aunt
I don't really have the time
An innocent exchange of petty postal lust
Could turn into a nasty crime
So pull a U-Y, Louie, don't come my way
There's no place like home
No need to run, no reason to fly
But you still have to go, you still have to roam
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
I don't know your reasons
I don't know your rhymes
I don't have the patience
And I don't have the time
You make me see red
You make me feel black
Don't ever get near me
Don't ever come back
I know what you're doing
It's somewhere I've been
I've seen it all happen
Again & again
I'm gonna say it once
And I'll make it clear
Go home! Do ya' hear me?
Get the hell out of here!
Run away Don't look back King of beasts in your neck His eyes red tinged With blood of rage One step too late He will engage
My claws are sharp My mind is calm One fault of you And I will come To take your life To eat your flesh You as my pray - the best
The heart is at Its limit now You should stop Should let it go Instant death Your only choice Is telling me a screaming voice
Just let it go You already know
Your end is near You will disappear Nothing to fear
Runaway He looks back King of beasts lost his track Thinking of his Life as saved So close to his grave
There it is Your one mistake I'm hiding here You take a brake Soon you'll feel My deadly teeth Your dying underneath
One last breath Painful death
Stares into his own eyes - sees life fade away time to turn around time to depart this way you would think it is hard you would think I'd be sad to be honest I am glad
I'm lost, I've gone astray
But I can't go
I'd like to runaway
There's a greyhound bus that's leaving
Half past four
This time it's over if I take it
So I slowly cross the room
And at the door
That's one mistake to make, when I maked it
I start to see you sleeping
Lying there
One empty cup, one empty chair
I'd like to runaway
But I can't go
I'd like to find a way
But I can't go
I'm lost, I've gone astray
But I can't go
No, I can't take it
No, I can't fake it
No, I couldn't make it through alone
I couldn't make it oh...
So instead I set my bag down
That Ain't fair
You're still sleeping like a baby
I touch your lips, your eyes, your mouth
And kiss your hair
It might just workout
Who knows, maybe
I was sure that I could make it
Through the door
Find someone else who needs me more
I'd like to runaway
But I can't go
I'd like to find a way
But I can't go
I'm lost, I've gone astray
But I can't go
No, I can't take it
No, I can't fake it
No, I couldn't make it through alone
I couldn't make it oh...
As I walk along, I wonder
Oh, what went wrong with our love
A love that was so strong
And as I still walk on
I think of the things we've done together
Oh, while our hearts were young
I'm a-walking in the rain, tears are falling and I feel a pain
A wishing you were here by me to end this misery
And I wonder, I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder
Why, why why why why why she ran away
And I wonder, oh where she will stay, yay
My little runaway, a-run-run-run-run-runaway
I'm a-walking in the rain, tears are falling and I feel a pain
A wishing you were here by me to end this misery
I wonder, I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder
Why, why why why why why she ran away
And I wonder, oh where she will stay, yay
My little runaway, a-run-run-run-run-runaway
Married men act totally different when they're by themselves, don't they?
You see them with their wife, like, "what's up Tony? Hey man, how's everything going brother?"
"Just taking it easy, hanging out with the lady"
"Alright, take it easy now, God bless you"
You be like that nigga ain't like that
You see him by himself, "What's up Tony?"
"Hey, yo, where's the bitches at, nigga?"
Yeah, give me my space, Lord ain't enough time to chase
All these dreams, I mean I got no time to wait
Love my girl but I told her straight up "don't wait up"
Stumble home late, I'm drunk, we fucked then made up
Used to living free as a bird, but now I'm laid up
Feeling like a nigga got handcuffs on
How the fuck did my life become a damn love song?
She ride for a nigga and she stand up for him
But a nigga wanna be a nigga, be a nigga
Ride through the streets with freaks and real niggas
She never understand what it's like to be a man
Knowing when you look inside yourself you see a nigga
And you don't wanna let her down but you too young for the settle down
And maybe you can thug it out, learn what is love about
When you can't live with her and you can't live without
Oh shit, goddamn, I think the devil got his hands on me
Stripper saying: "Baby, why don't you throw these bands on me?"
And I came to spend
She pop a molly let the motherfucking games begin
I'm running...
Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway
I'm holding on desperately
Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway
I'm holding on
When it's all said and done everybody dies
In this life ain't no happy endings
Only pure beginnings followed by years of sinning and fake repentance
The preacher says we were made in image of Lord
To which I replied: "Are you sure?
Even the murderer? Even the whore?
Even the nigga running through bitches on tour?"
With a good girl at home folding clothes and shit
She losing faith in him and he knows and shit
Like what the fuck is a break, don't know how much I can take no more
I give you all I got till it ain't no more
No more tears it's been ten long years, damn near
I don't know if I can wait no more, and who can blame her
You complaining 'bout every time you out, you come back she pout
Sleeping back to back, this is wack
We 'bout to go platinum and I'm in the crib acting out
My childhood fantasies of wife and home
But it's a whole lot of actresses I'd like to bone
And despite the rumors you hold out on account of your guilt
She's has got to spend her nights alone
And she ride or die like Eve and 'em
Make home-cooked meals every evening
And even then, your lowest days
When you're no longer Superman, at least you know you got Lois Lane
But you...
Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway
I'm holding on desperately
Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway
I'm holding on
Yeah, unbelievable seen evil that not even Knievel know
At age 3 I knew this world was three below
Listen, even know my ego low achieved the unachievable
Imagine if my confidence was halfway decent, yo
This just in, fucked more bitches than Bieber though
Still I keep it low, got my niggas on the need to know
Basis, my manager back in the days was racist
I was a young boy, passing skates and tucking laces
Old perverted white man who told me: "Jermaine
It's all pink on the inside, fuck what color their face is"
Wise words from an indecent man
Made me reflect on the times when we was three-fifths of them
In chains and powerless, brave souls reduced to cowardice
Slaving in the baking sun for hours just
To see the master creep into the shack where your lady at
9 months later got a baby, that's
Not quite what you expected, but you
Refuse to neglect it, cause you
Know your wifey loves you, does you refuse to accept it?
That's that type shit that tell why my granny light-skinned
Rich white man rule the nation still
Only difference is we all slaves now, the chains still concealed
In our thoughts, if I follow my heart to save myself
Could I run away from 50 mill like Dave Chappelle?
You know...
Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway
I'm holding on desperately
Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway
Remember I'm the one who didn't have a lot to say
I was trying to find the courage, but I let you walk away
And I can't forget your face, y'know it haunts me all the time
And it seems to me you're living in a dream
Wish we could run away, we could be alone together
Far away, leave the world behind
Runaway, runaway, what I want to say is
You're a part of me, let me be a part of you
I want to tell you what I'm thinking, but the words get in the way
When I'm sitting here alone I find the things I meant to say
If I wrote them in a letter, would you read between the lines
Would you understand how much I really care
Wish we could run away, we could be alone together
Far away, leave the world behind
Runaway, runaway, what I want to say is
You're a part of me, let me be a part of you
[I] I love you
[Need] I need you
[You] Don't want to live without you
If I'm backward counting forward, would you help me realize
All the answers to the questions I've been asking with my eyes
I could hand you all the cliches, but you've heard them all before
And I want to say I love you in my own way
And could we run away, we could be alone together
Far away, leave the world behind
Runaway, runaway, what I want to say is
You're a part of me, let me be a part of you
Runaway, runaway, we could be alone together
Far away, leave the world behind
Runaway, I love you, I need you
What I want to say is, I want you
You're a, I love you, part of me, I need you
Let me be a part of you
And I am hollow as she beckons me
A million years its has taken me
The words that are escaping out my mouth
She can't find the words to say
In a moment she can't take
And her wings won't spread to let her fly south
Runaway, she's a runaway
And all the roads less traveled on
Are sorched with footprints laid upon
With bare feet and virgin eyes
The independence that she fakes
Is the dream she has to face
And its easy to believe in your own lies
Runaway, she's a runaway
And soon she will wake up
And take off her makeup
Its been so long since she's seen her skin
And the scars show from the places she's been
Runaway, she's a runaway
She's a runaway
Runaway
And I am hollow as she beckons me
A million years its taken me
The words that are escaping out my mouth
She can't find the words to say
In a moment she can't take
And her wings won't spread to let her fly south
Runaway, she's a runaway
Runaway
Runaway
Runaway
Wait a-wait and see
Well I've been waiting my whole life baby
For what's coming to me
Darlin' can't you see
That if you want my love then claim it
Or else let me be
I need you too much
(baby)
I was no match for you
So I gotta run run
(Runaway)
Can't take another lonely day
(Runaway)
Can't make it any other way
(Runaway)
You don't want me anymore
(Runaway)
Watch me walk right out the door
Hold on you said and you knew I would
You only talk like that you knew you could
Turn me all around can't tell up from down
You hide your heart from me never to be found
I need you too much
(baby)
I was no match for you
So I gotta run run
(Runaway)
Can't take another lonely day
(Runaway)
Can't make it any other way
(Runaway)
You don't want me anymore
(Runaway)
Watch me walk right out the door
(Runaway)
Can't take another lonely day
(Runaway)
Can't make it any other way
(Runaway)
You don't want me anymore
(Runaway)
As I walk along I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of the things
We've done together while our hearts were young
I'm a walking in the rain, tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here with me to end this misery
And I wonder, wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder why
Why, why, why, why, why she went away
And I wonder if she will stay, my little runaway
My run, run, run, run, runaway
I'm a walking in the rain, tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here with me to end this misery
And I wonder, wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder why
Why, why, why, why, why she went away
And I wonder if she will stay, my little runaway
My run, run, run, run, runaway
I'm a walking in the rain, tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here with me to end this misery
And I wonder, wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder why
Why, why, why, why, why she went away
And I wonder if she will stay, my little runaway
My run, run, run, run, runaway, my run, run, run, run, runaway

Love will make you run away
I thought that you were sleeping
You seemed as right as rain the day before
I never dreamt you would awake
I never dreamt that you would take them all
You always run run run like you run in a race
You always run run run rather than accept who it
You’re a runaway
Uu, you’re a runaway
You always run run run like you run in a race
You always run run run rather than accept who it
You’re a runaway
Uu, you’re a runaway
Uu, you’re
Going home now
Uu, run on home
You seem to be in slumber
Blissful and oblivious to dawn
I didn’t even put my make-up on before I made that
emergency call
No, not all
You always run run run like you run in a race
You always run run run rather than accept who it
You’re a runaway
Uu, you’re a runaway
You always run run run like you run in a race
You always run run run rather than accept who it
You’re a runaway
Uu, you’re a runaway
Uu, you’re a runaway
Uu, you’re a runaway
Uu, you’re a runaway
Uu, you’re a runaway
They thought that it was murder
Poison, some Victorian design
But then I saw your fingers wrapped the chopper
Press and turn design
You always run run run like you run in a race
You always run run run rather than accept who it
You’re a runaway
Uu, you’re a runaway
You always run run run like you run in a race
You always run run run rather than accept who it
You’re a runaway
Uu, you’re a runaway
Uu, you’re
Going home now
Uu, run on home
Run on home now
Uu, run on home
Gone away now
Gone away
I wanna know the structure of your heart
Why do you tear my broken soul apart.
Is it a dream or my reality?
Love comes without a live-time warranty.
Refrain:
Oh, oh, oh, I want to run away
you told me nothing else but lies,
I'm singing...
Oh, oh, oh, I try to run away
Cause I just want to live my life
I'm singing...
Oh, oh, oh, I want to run away
As long as you are by my side
I'm singing...
Oh, oh, oh, I try to run away
but I can't find a place to hide.
No I'm not your f**** second choice
No I'm not turning down my voice
Until you understand there's nothing to command
Until you realize that we could touch the skies
Can you feel it's out of control
can you feel there's nothing at all.
Refrain:
Oh, oh, oh, I want to run away
You told me nothing else but lies,
I'm singing...
Oh, oh, oh, I try to run away
Cause I just want to live my life
I'm singing...
Oh, oh, oh, I want to run away
As long as you are by my side
I'm singing...
Oh, oh, oh, I try to run away
Can we go away
And never turn around again
On an escapade
And always keep the vision
Can we open out
And spread ourselves around the sand
Captivate the sun
Keep the light till the world ends
Runaway
Runaway
Take away the wall
And break away my defense
Candle by our side
And never let the rain begin
We're a part of a plan
And it's already written
There is no other way
It's inside our every sense
Earth is our island
Karma, am I yours
Is that your intuition
If that is your word
I'm the definition
In our destinies
That is what was missing
Echo in my mind
rock and roll
as i walk along I wonder,
what went wrong with our love,
a love that was so strong
and as i still walk, i think of what we done together, while our hearts were young
i'm walking in the rain, tears are falling and i feel the pain wishing you were here by me to end this misery
and i wonder, why why why why why why, why why why why why
she ran away and i wonder, were she will stay
my little runaway, run run run run runaway
lets go,
rock and roll
i'm walking in the rain, tears are falling and i feel the pain,
wishing you were here by me to end this misery
and i wonder, why why why why why why, why why why why why
she ran away and i wonder, were she will stay
my little runaway, run run run run runaway
Why don't we...Why don't we
Why don't we...Why don't we
Take me away
Release me from the cage
Free me from the pain
And let me feel no shame
The stars spin circles around the bad times
You splashed your water on my fire sign
The fortune teller told us to unwind
Come on run away
Runaway...Runaway...Runaway
Why don't we
Why don't we
I've felt invisible for a long time
This town will smother what's left of mine
Untaken chances come back to life
Come on run away
Runaway...Runaway...Runaway
I've been I've been all
I've been I've been all
I've been I've been all around the world dream
Let's go free...Let's go free
Why don't we...Why don't we
You've been saying that you want to go
I'm finally ready to let go
Let's go...Let's go...Let's go
I am finally ready
Take me away
Release me from the cage
Free me from the pain
And let me feel no shame
Let's go free...Let's go free
You don't know how much I love you
but I love you like the sun
I'd like to put my arms around you
And we could
(chorus)
Run run run, run away
Come on baby let's
run run run, run away
Come on baby let's
run run run, run away
If you knew how much I miss you
Oh and I miss you more and more each day
I'd really like to come and see you
And we could
(chorus)
Sun is comin' and
it's getting warmer
They tell me spring is
just around the corner
I been sitting watchin'
all the flowers
Birds are singin'
getting louder and louder
And here I am missin' you
and here I go I'm lovin' you
Run run run run runnin'
If you knew how much I need you
Oh and I need you like the air
And if someone should take you from me
Well then I'd
Butterflies inside, freaking me out
I should be walking away but I'm pinned to the ground
I can't get free, no-one's saving me
Walking in the water, seeing what I can find
Before I even knew it I was caught on the line (Yeah)
You pulled me in, you got under my skin
Every part of my body's telling me to go
Telling me to get out
Every part of my body's saying I should be gone
But I'm still here
I can't run away, it's a losing game
I can't fight it (fight it)
You want me and I like it
So I put my hands up
I got a white flag flying
Only you can knock me out
I can't fight it (fight it)
You want me and I like it
It's the first time in forever that I've been so scared
You just five foot six, blue eyes, blonde hair
When I see your face
There's no breathing space
In my life
You stop deep inside
Take me home
Then I can go
I can't run away, it's a losing game
I can't fight it (fight it)
You want me and I like it
So I put my hands up
I got a white flag flying
Only you can knock me out
I can't fight it (fight it)
You want me and I like it
Oh I can't fight it
No I can't fight it
Every part of my body's telling me to go
Telling me to get out
Every part of my body's saying I should be gone
But I'm still here
I can't run away, it's a losing game
I can't fight it (fight it)
You want me and I like it
So I put my hands up
I got a white flag flying
Only you can knock me out
I can't fight it (fight it)
You want me and I like it
I can't fight it
She stands alone again at night
The darkness calling her name
The light's on but there's nothing inside
She waits outside for someone to blame
She falls down on her knees
And she cries
She doesn't wanna be alone again
And the streets keep calling her name
She only has to reach out and then
She could write the rules of the game
If she could only stop the hands of time
She could changeher whole damn life
She would find a paradise
To runaway
She fells a breeze and opens her eyes
She wakes up in a white bed
By the beach there's a change in the tides
Love gave her life instead
She looks up to the sky
She knows why
She doesn't wanna be alone again
And the streets keep calling her name
She only has to reach out and then
She could write the rules of the game
If she could only stop the hands of time
She could changeher whole damn life
She would find a paradise
To runaway
They always told her
That this was all she could be
She once was blind
But then life taught her
How to see
She had to believe
She doesn't wanna be alone again
And the streets keep calling her name
She only has to reach out and then
She could write the rules of the game
If she could only stop the hands of time
She could changeher whole damn life
She would find a paradise
To runaway
Chorus:
Run away, Run away, run away and save your life.
Run away, run away, run away if you want to survive.
Run away, Run away, run away and save your life.
Run away, run away, run away if you want to survive.
Money, sex, in full control, a generation without soul,
perfect people in a perfect world, behind closed doors all in control,
life, in a world of luxury, cold cash money mentality,
you gotta keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
you better keep the faith and run away.
Chorus
It's time to break free, oh oh oh oh, run away, oh oh oh oh,
you better break free, oh oh oh oh, run away, oh oh oh oh.
Money, sex, in full control, look, big brother is watching you,
unlock your brain and save your soul, no more limits, no more curfew,
life in the perfect system, take a stand and fight for freedom,
keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
you better keep the faith and run away.
Chorus several times
It's time to break free, oh oh oh oh, run away,
oh oh oh oh, you better break free, oh oh oh oh,
run away, oh oh oh oh
Keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
you better keep the faith and run away.
Keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
you better keep the faith and run away.
As I walk along, I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong,
And as I still walk on, I think of the things we've done together,While our hearts were young.
I'm a walking in the rain, tears are fallin'And I feel a pain.a-wishin you were here by me,
To end this misery,And I wonder, wo-wo-wo-wo-wonder,why, why, why, why, why, why she ran away,
And I wonder where she will stay, my little runaway,
[Verse 1]
Well, I waited long time sweatin it
Gettin jerked but yea I'm gettin it
Early mornin, stiff as dawn and 'em, cuz a brother give the mornin off
And then we doin in, paranoid to new swearin
I said meet me in the lobby skip
So one could cut down on the cherry tip
Alright, he flyin scat, to being fair to show a mighty that
La Di Da Di wanted Gotti and although depended on the body and
Who I know was gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know she's gonna be wit him, so hallelujah, praise God King
[samples]
[Verse 2]
Checked it out, even candle light I figured out
better handle it my nigga, in
I think the best thing is to block her out
cuz she doesn't give a fuck about
So much change and true it in, you would of cared to wish the u-nion
She's not a phony, turn the Sony off, you better overcome the lonely of
Although a brother lettin that, thus don't know where I'm headin at
To see, even though we fought of it
by bother just the very thought of it
When I know she's gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know she's gonna be wit him, so hallelujah, praise God King
And I know you're gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know you gonna be wit him, can't belive that this is happenin
[samples]
[Verse 3]
Well, I should say fine and phone wit coin
but though you say that I'm the only one
What, behind my back thinkin of, or father not the one I'm thinkin of
On this stress, and when it's gonna end
down wit this burden here I'm wonderin
I know I should say fine fed it yea
and think about all the girls ahead of ya
Though hard for me to just forget he
and try to follow to the letter end
Although the terrible things we riff about
or follow wise that I can live it out
When I know you're gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know you gonna be wit him, so hallelujah, praise God King
When I know you're gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know you gonna be wit him, can't believe this is happenin
I know you're gonna runaway, I know you're gonna be wit him
Seems I know you're gonna runaway, I know you're gonna be wit him
As I walk along, I wonder
A what went wrong whit our love
A love that was so strong
And as I still walk on
I think of the thing's we've done
Together, while our hearts were young
I'm a walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel a pain
A wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder, I wa wa wa wa wonder
Why a why why why why
she ran away
And I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway
My run run run run runaway
I'm a walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel a pain
A wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder, I wa wa wa wa wonder
Why a why why why why
she ran awayway
and I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway
A run run run run
runaway
And I wonder a where she will stay
My little runaway
I was feeling sad
Can't help looking back
Highways flew by
Run, run away
No sense of time
Like you to stay
Want to keep you inside
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay
Want you to be my prize
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay
Want you to be my prize
I was feeling sad
Can't help looking back
Highways flew by
Run, run, run away
No sense of time
Like you to stay
Want to keep you inside
All alone
Not so strong without these open arms
Hold on tight
All alone
Not that strong without these open arms
Lie beside
All alone
Not so strong without these open arms
Lie beside
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay
Want you to be my prize
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay
There is so much I wanna say to you now
But words can’t make up all this time away
I would give anything and everything
Just to be with you
Thousands of miles can’t separate
My feelings for you
[Chorus]
So maybe we’ll run away
And the world would be ours for a day
No one can take you away from me
Not today, so let’s run away
This pain inside feels I may be loosing you
Kills me to know how hard this must have be for you
I would give anything and everything
Just to break away
I’d give you my heart, my pride
Leave everything, I’ll become
So maybe we’ll run away
And the world would be ours for a day
No one can take you away from me
So maybe we’ll run away
And take what it’s ours for a day
Today we’ll leave our enemies, far away
So let’s run away,
Take on this moment, I won’t run it over
I swear it’s not away, not away,
...together, just with me forever
It’s so many ways,
[Chorus]
So maybe we’ll run away
And the world would be ours for a day
And no one can take you away from me
Not today,
So maybe we’ll run away
And take what it’s ours for a day
Today we’ll leave our enemies, far away
I've got my things packed, my favorite pillow
Got my sleeping bag, climb out the window
All the pictures and pain, I've left behind
All the freedom and fame, I've gotta find
And I wonder, how long it will take them
To notice that I'm gone
And I wonder, how far it'll take me
To run away, it don't make any sense to me
Run away, this life makes no sense to me
Run away, it don't make any sense to me
Run away, it don't make any sense to me
I was just trying to be myself, have it your way, I'll meet you in hell
It's all these secrets that I shouldn't tell, I've got to run away
It's hypocritical of you, do as you say not as you do
I'll never be your perfect girl, I've got to run away
Well, I'm too young to be taken seriously
But I'm too old to believe all this hypocrisy
And I wonder, how long it will take them to see my bed is made
And I wonder
If I was a mistake, I might have nowhere left to go
But I know that I cannot go home
These words are strapped inside my head
Tell me to run before I'm dead
Chase the rainbows in my mind
And I will try to stay alive
Maybe the world will know one day
Why won't you help me run away
It don't make any sense to me, run away
This life makes no sense to me, run away
I could sing for change on a Paris street
Be a red light dancer in New Orleans
I could start again to the family
I could change my name, come and go as I please
In the dead of night
You'll wonder where I've gone
Wasn't it you, wasn't it you
Wasn't it you that made me run away
I was just trying to be myself, have it your way I'll meet you in hell
All these secrets that I shouldn't tell, I've got to run away
Hypocritical of you, do as you say not as you do
Never be your perfect girl, I've got to run away
It don't make any sense to me, run away
This life makes no sense to me, run away
It don't make any sense to me, run away
It don't make any sense to me
This life makes no sense to me
It don't make any sense to me
It don't make any sense to me
As I walk along
I wonder what went wrong
With our love
A love that was so strong
And as I still walk on
I think of the things we've done
Together
While our hearts were young
I'm walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder
Why she ran away?
And I wonder
Where she will stay?
My little runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway
I'm walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder
Why she ran away?
And I wonder
Where she will stay?
My little runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway
Runaway, run for your life he's returned...
I ain't worked in 2 years, guess who's back
Still, my whole albums sell like crack
Blow indo out tha window, of my Limo
Sleepin, with my heat in my pillow
I really don't give a damn, who you are
Understand that you dealin wif a shootin star
Competition, never heard of it
But I hit permanent, did I murder it?
Afermative
The urban kid, learnin quick, about earnin grib
Got more 8 ball than a pool tournament
Swearvin and burbin still cadillacin
Still pack tha mackin, still bout no rappin
Drop like Geronimo, got porono-flow
You are bit too young, but your mama know
I'm pit-fisious, never fake-tisious
In this, cause MC's so delicious...
Like Mexican, get revenge
Never stop settin trends
To tha level of excellence
Still stackin dead presidents
It's evident, I'm Texas sent
Who plex get proper measurment
No refery, sellin cheese
Enemies, Memories
Yes sir'y, rest in peace
Been that way for centuries
Set chemistry, I'm blessin fiends
We the men of empty dreams
My every, master piece
Influenced by street tragedys
Got family, tried jackin me
Alotta fun that'll be...
White postah, steak and lobster
Sautay shrimp, five fif and sauces
Craw fish, sausage, even austrage
Why test one from tha crack monters?
Crunshes of the world of lobstas
My nina ross does wonders with tha crossas
Balas don't care, whatcha call us
Livin cautious, takin no loses
All my whole office, got no accompliss
Tha thought of bosses makes me nautious
Promised mom this time it's honest
Drop hit's and make lagidimate profits
Knowledge from tha street college
Reach for tha top, just watch tha copers
Imposter hate true Mobbstas
Say it's true, there's nothing like me and you
You're not alone, tell me you feel it too
Cause i would runaway, i would runaway with you
I would runaway, i would runaway with you.
Cause i'm, falling in love, with you
no, never, i never gonna stop
falling in love with you.
Close the door, lay down, on the floor
and i candle light, make love to me through the night
And i have runaway, i have runaway with you
i have runaway, i have runaway with you.
Cause i'm, falling in love with you
no, never, i never gonna stop falling in love
with you.
And i have runaway, i have runaway with you
I have runaway, i have runaway with you.
Cause i'm, falling in love with you
no, never, i never gonna stop falling in love
I am more than you know, street lights and open roads
I am more than a face, stuck living in one place
So call me California
Call me what you will
Cause I am bigger than this place, And so far from alone
I don't believe in your hate 'cause these scars are gonna fade
So pour me out like water, and soak me up like rain
[Chorus: ]
Like a runaway, spend these night counting stars
Like a runaway
And maybe I could call this home tonight
Like a runaway
I whisper all these secrets, to a blank page on a line
I said we don't speak like lovers, and my words are dripping with wine
So call me California
Call me what you will
'Cause I'm bigger than this place
And so far from alone
[Chorus]
When burning bridges won't come down
Like symphonies without a sound
I spend these nights counting stars
And wonder if there's hope for me out there, out there
TIME IS RUNNING OUT
WHEN U LEFT ME BEHIND
IS IT OVER YET (2X)
MY HEART WANTED TO SHOUT
AND HOPE THINGS WILL REWIND
IS IT OVER YET (2X)
FOR EVERY SONG THAT I SING
THERE'S A LOVE THAT I'VE BEEN KEEPING
AND A SECRETS THAT ARE HIDING
IT'S WITH YOU
BUT YOU THREW IT AWAY...
I'M RUNNING AWAY
RUN AWAY...
I'M RUN AWAY FROM YOU
I'M SORRY, I HAVE TO, SAY GOODBYE, TO YOU
AND EVER SINCE YOU GONE AWAY
I JUST WANNA SAY THAT I MISS YOU
FOR NOW WE'RE GOING OUR SEPARATE WAYS
YOU MAKIN ME HARD TO BREATHE
YOU MAKIN ME HARD TO SLEEP
COULD IT BE OVER YET (2X)
YOU MADE IT EVEN WORSE
WHEN YOU SAY
YOU DON'T NEED ME ANYMORE
AND NOW IT'S OVER...
FOR EVERY SONG THAT I SING
THERE'S A LOVE THAT I'VE BEEN KEEPING
AND A SECRETS THAT ARE HIDING
IT'S WITH YOU
BUT YOU THREW IT AWAY...
I'M RUNNING AWAY
RUN AWAY...
I'M RUN AWAY FROM YOU
I'M SORRY, I HAVE TO, SAY GOODBYE, TO YOU
AND EVER SINCE YOU GONE AWAY
I JUST WANNA SAY THAT I MISS YOU
FOR NOW WE'RE GOING OUR SEPARATE WAYS
SOMETIMES I JUST WON'T FEEL THE SAME
WHEN LYIN' HERE IN UR ARMS AGAIN
I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE
[Devlin Verse 1]
A lifetime of dreaming, visualising paradise
I woke and rolled over and told my girl we're leaving
It's time to sacrifice a lot
cause you ain't happy with your job
and round here it's like nothin' seems appealing
So let me know you feel the same
throw your life into a case and walk the path from Victoria this evening
And then embark upon a path of rediscovery
searching for the fruits from the lost garden of Eden
I'm wondering if I runaway and came back another day,
then would the young men who roll with metal put the guns away
and would the devil have took charge or would the slum be safe
I pray the latter's right for everybody's mumsy's sake.
and if I dissappear for years and reappear
would my natural intuition still be crystal clear?
Or would I have lost clarity?
In this trivial pursuit we're walking through so casually
[Yasmin - Chorus]
I gotta leave, I gotta go,
there's nothing here for me no more
I gotta be free, I gotta be
somewhere that I can just be me.
and I run run runaway, run run runaway,
run run runaway, I runaway.
[Devlin Verse 2]
We share a last cigerette, then walk into the station
purchase two tickets to an alien destination
Board the train and witness pain on all the faces of multi-cultural races
but not me and my girl we're breaking free
like an escapist, cuz we need to escape this
and I for one have got my mind made up,
even if where we stay is make-shift
I can't remain in this domain of semi ape sh-t, because all I see is hatred
I wonder if I dissappeared how many men would miss me
or would they all forget like I erased my name from history?
I'm still trying yet to make a break within the chain of pain and misery
and vanish off the planet like a mystery.
and if I did return would things be the same or worse?
You see the gear stick shift and then the whip reverse and I'd be straight back on my travels
Burning rubber over gravel 'til we see the English Channel
[Chorus]
[Devlin Verse 3]
As the carriage pulls away, I pull my lady closer and I tell her she's okay
'Coz if we never broke the barricades today we'd always be afraid
and left to feel threatened in this dark and deadly maze
But now I've come of age, and as the train starts enterin' suburbia a smile comes across my face
The unwinding of eternal rage, that was locked up inside just like my mates behind prison gates
If I could runaway and come back another day,
I'd let the song play, on the summer's longest day.
Kick back and just enjoy the raves, with a lager and a spliff to blaze.
If I ever contemplate returning to this crazy place
I'd leave it long enough so they don't recognise my face
I'd let the song play, on the summer's longest day
While I roll upon the roads along the motorway
I can t breathe inside this mask
I can't love with all my heart
But I done wanna hurt no one
When look into those eyes
Its someone else's face I see
And I know that this is wrong
I slip my disguise when I sleep, close my eyes
You'll be waiting right there in my dreams
I wanna runaway
I wanna fly to you
I don't wanna live out a lie
But that's all I can do
So I breathe in each kiss
I wanna runaway
I wanna just escape
As sure as the night hides our love
Soon the dawn must break
And I will wake
You'll be gone
Oh oh, runaway
Oh oh, I wanna runaway
When you walk into the room
You're the only face I see
And it's time that I was gone
Cos the damage can't be done
Or two worlds would fall apart
And in truth I am not that strong
I slip my disguise when I sleep, close my eyes
You'll be waiting right there in my dreams
So 1 know, I must bury this inside
Where the world would never see
That my heart can't be free
I can't breathe inside this mask
I can't love with all my heart
Red one lady gaga haha baby baby baby baby i anit gonna runaway runaway run run run run away
Feel the adrenaline moving under my skin
It's an addiction such an eruption
Sound is my remedy feeding me energy
Music is all I need.
Baby, I just wanna dance
I don't really care I just wanna dance
I don't really care... care... care (feel it in the air... yeah)
[Chorus]
She's being a crazy dita disco diva... and you wonder:
"Who's that chick? who's that chick?"
Too cold for you to keep her
Too hot for you to leave her
Who's that chick? who's that chick?
Who's that chick? who's that chick?
Who's that chick? who's that chick?
Back on the dancefloor better not to take me home
Bass kicking so hot blazing through my beating heart
French kissing on the floor, heart is beating hardcore
Heard everybody is getting a little sexy on the crazy juice
This will end up in the news
Baby, I just wanna dance
I don't really care I just wanna dance
I don't really care... care... care (feel it in the air... yeah
[Chorus]
She's a mean and crazy dita disco diva... and you wonder:
"Who's that chick? who's that chick?"
Too cold for you to keep her
Too hot for you to leave her
Who's that chick? who's that chick?
Who's that chick? who's that chick?
Who's that chick? who's that chick?
Ultra sexual, the night has got me love sprung
I won't stop until the sun is up oh yeah
My heart is a dancer beating like a disco drum oh oh uh oh
Ultra sexual, the night has got me love sprung
I won't stop until the sun is up oh yeah
My heart is a dancer beating like a disco drum
Beating like a disco drum... beating like a disco drum...
[Chorus]
She's a mean and crazy dita disco diva... and you wonder:
"Who's that chick? who's that chick?"
Too cold for you to keep her
Too hot for you to leave her
Who's that chick? who's that chick?
Who's that chick? who's that chick?

Feels so good being bad
There's no way I'm turning back
Now the pain is for pleasure, 'cause nothing can measure
Love is great, love is fine
Out the box, out of line
The affliction of the feeling leaves me wanting more.
-chorus-
'Cause I may be bad, but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Stickss and stones may break my bones,
But chains and whips excite me.

Alright, now take one look at me,
Cause it's the last you'll ever see because I'm leaving tonight.
And just think about it, you'll never have to be embarrassed,
In front of your friends and family again, so enjoy it.
And the air will be better,
It will feel much thinner.
There will be no more excuses,
And no more covering up your face.
And I'm going to run away with my baby,
Get married and maybe someday we'll have kids that you'll never meet.
And I'm gonna tell them stories of how the grandpa would bathe in the glory of all his power,
And use his fake friends.
And see the air will be better,
It will feel much thinner.
It will feel like heaven.
It will feel so good when I am gone.
Now see I don't know what you think, you're just a kid.
Only 18, where do you think you're going?
See, you've got nothing to stand on,
You don't have a better place to live.
And you'll be wishing that you never left.
And the air will be thicker,
It will be hard to breathe sometimes.
You won't know what hit you,
You'll be sad and lonely before you know it.
Now, don't go make a decision that's going to leave your life down a collision course of failure.
But you're a grown up now, you're 18.
Just don't come running back to me when you need something,
My door is locked.
And the air will be humid,
It will give you headaches.
It will make you sweat.
It will be a mistake if you go,
And I won't be there to cover up your tracks no more.
Dad, I'm leaving tonight,
You can't scare me anymore.
And I don't need this in my life,
I don't need it anymore.
Dad, I'm leaving tonight,
You can't scare me anymore.
And I don't need this in my life,
I don't need it anymore.
[Hook:]
Run-run-run away, lost-lost-lost my mind
Want you to stay, want you to be my prize
Run-run-run away, lost-lost-lost my mind
Want you to stay, want you to be my prize
[Verse 1:]
And now you standing there, holding out our promise ring
You're crying but you feeling not a thing
'Cause it dawned on you like a new day that your man's not a king
He a parasite and your life's really got up in
And all you got is him but he got everybody
You a working woman and he a busy body
You had big dreams but he had a little hobby
And you had the feeling you could change a nigga city probably
And now here we are, dinner table flipped
Cell phone open, text message six,
On the floor like the tell tale heart
She ask do I wanna be this? I'm like oh hell start
'Cause I'm at the point of giving in so we can begin again
Fresher than the prince in them Bel-Air parks
But I can tell by the look that I get from her eyes
I took everything she had and now she empty inside
I try to reverse roles, if it was me in her place
I'd be putting someone in hearse mode and I don't feel like a stranger
She looking at me like I raped her, all of the sudden
The memory of what I used to be drifting through the air like a vapor
And it breaks her, she don't got nowhere to go
We don't even know the neighbors so I tell her...
[Hook:]
Run-run-run away, lost-lost-lost my mind
Want you to stay, want you to be my prize
Run-run-run away, lost-lost-lost my mind
Want you to stay, want you to be my prize
[Verse 2:]
But I was never one to fight but we would argue
How I would never be the type of guy that her mother likes
So what do I do? Go and prove her mother right?
I'm too embarrassed, I don't even want the rights
Show up at her door with flowers like poor Nate
What I do? And then I'm blocked at the doorway
I could see her in the kitchen with her head down
Wishing she could put it all behind her and call me
We was too close and it's been too long
And the memory of what we had is too strong
She had some genuine feelings but they was used wrong
And now the only decent thing to do is move on, as she watched me
It took her every ounce of willpower not to stop me
And accept my apology, all of a sudden, heard some footsteps from behind me
Think she wanted to hold me but she only told me...
[Hook:]
Run-run-run away, lost-lost-lost my mind
Want you to stay, want you to be my prize
Run-run-run away, lost-lost-lost my mind
Want you to stay, want you to be my prize
Run away, run away, run away
Run away, run away, run away
Run away, run away, run away
(feat. Mike Herrera Of Mxpx)
I can’t give you the moment, the chance to be right
I won’t save this for tonight
I can’t give you the reason, the truth, or the light
But I will keep you in my sight
I can’t say that I’m scared as this pain sets me free
I have lived without love, without all that I need
See the marks that I bare, and the shame that runs deep
You have made every moment so worthless to me and
I can’t understand this at all
Runaway from this life,
Is so far from the things that I know (won't let go)
Get away from this fight, I don’t want to give in or let go
I won’t let go
I can’t say that I’m proud, as this pain spreads through me
I have said my last words, I have thrown out the keys
I get back to despair, as my eyes fall asleep
Now our dreams come to ends, I am so incomplete and
I can’t comprehend this at all
Runaway from this life,
Is so far from the things that I know (that I know)
Get away from this fight, I don’t want to give in or let go
I won’t let go
I can’t give you the reason, the truth, or the light
But I will keep you in my sight
Runaway from this life,
Is so far from the things that I know
Get away from this fight, I don’t want to give in or let go
Runaway from this life,
Is so far from the things that I know (won't let go)
Get away from this fight, I don’t want to give in or let go
I've said all I can say
And it doesn't seem to change anything
It's meant to be this way
I guess you have to lose everything
Before you can appreciate
And I won't let this happen again
Runaway from love, runaway from love go
Run away, just go away
I've paid all I can pay
And it doesn't seem to help anything
I'll save it for a rainy day
Sometimes nothing is everything
Is this really my fate
And I won't let this happen again
Runaway from love, go
Runaway, just go away
What you needed isn't what I wanted to do
There's no coming back
Dreams are bleeding from all the lies coming true
Wish I could take them back
My life might be different but at least I can say
I trust my own rules and I trust my own way
Don't judge me by the way I feel
My thoughts are genuine my life is real
I don't know why I don't make a big deal
Sometimes I wish I could run away
When I wake up every morning
Every single day
The sun is still shining but my sky's still gray
And I don't know what to think
Everything that's been said and taught to me
Fades away like a somber symphony
And I don't know how to feel
I listen to what I've been told before,
but it doesn't seem to work anymore
And I don't know what to do
Sleepless nights and hopeless dreams
Out of reach is how things seem
And I don't know what to think
Another time, another place
Having thoughts I can't erase
And I don't know how to feel
Just hold on, I'll meet you there
It'll work this time I swear
shoot out the lights
and then you said,
"we've stayed high
too long here in the sky"
you shoot out the lights
i had to see the big star rising
there's nothing to fear
'cause nothing can bring us down
now that we've made it here
nothing to fear
nothing but the big star rising
work my fingers to the bone
so we could get this high
but we still can't fly
i feel like coming down
you're still, still hanging around
my feet back on the ground
so i can runaway
i wanna runaway
i feel like coming down
you're still, still hanging around
my feet back on the ground
so i can runaway
i wanna runaway
nothing for free
my hands will reach up so high
to bring you down with me
nothing for free
i wanna see the big star rising
i don't mind the heat
not even your flames will burn
as long as i can see
i don't mind the heat
i had to see the big star rising
work my fingers to the bone
so we could get this high
but we still can't fly
i feel like coming down
you're still, still hanging around
my feet back on the ground
so i can runaway
i wanna runaway
i feel like coming down
you're still, still hanging around
my feet back on the ground
so i can runaway
i wanna runaway
i wanna runaway.
Chorus:
Baby if you've got to go away
I don't think
I can take the pain
Won't you stay another day
Oh, don't leave me
alone like this
Don't say it's the final kiss
Won't you stay another day
Don't you know
We've come too far now
Just to go
And try to throw it all away
Thought I heard you say
You love me
That your love was gonna
be here to stay
I've only just begun
To know you
All I can say is
Won't you stay just one more day
Chorus:
Baby if you've got to go away
I don't think
I can take the pain
Won't you stay another day
Oh, don't leave me
alone like this
Don't say it's the final kiss
Won't you stay another day
I touch your face while
you are sleeping
And hold your hand
Don't understend what's going on
Good times we had return
To haunt me
Though it's for you
All that I do seem to be wrong
Chorus:
Baby if you've got to go away
I don't think
I can take the pain
Won't you stay another day
Oh, don't leave me
alone like this
Don't say it's the final kiss
A love like ours is slightly out of time here We need to find a way to set our souls free Oh come away if you wanna know A perfect place Where only love grows
Moon and tide sing a song never ceasing Sad souls cry out for the love of the sea Oh come away if you wanna know A perfect place Where only love grows
CHORUS Runaway and love will grow while we're waiting Runaway find an easier way Runaway from the end of all reason Runaway we gotta do it today
Wax and wane flows The sea never ending Sails in the wind Singing come unto me Come
I'm scared I might loose the heart
Cause of what all my past has done to me
To wonder in the... no more
Even though I know you're the life for me
I don't wanna see you go
Even though I pushed your love away
No I don't make you walk out my door, no
But only cause I'm so afraid, I don't know what's happening
With my love, would you be mine
Why did you have to happen now
[Chorus]
You're the right one at the wrong time
Now my heart is like the missing person
You're the reason why my love is running
I've been running, I'm tired of running
I don't wanna be a runaway
A bunch of pictures saying that you single
Won't you come and find me cause I need you
I've been running, I'm tired of running
I don't wanna be a runaway
Whoa, oho, whoa, I don't wanna be a runaway
Been lost so long that I couldn't be found
Never had anyone that can search for me
See now I be left lonely, met her dancing weren't hurting me
... talk down, that you coming my resistance
Love makes me so vulnerable, so I give you all of these things
I don't know what's wrong with me,
I wish my love would let you be mine
Why did you have to happen now
[Chorus] x 2
You're the right one at the wrong time
Now my heart is like the missing person
You're the reason why my love is running
I've been running, I'm tired of running
I don't wanna be a runaway
A bunch of pictures saying that you single
Won't you come and find me cause I need you
I've been running, I'm tired of running
Now that the hardest part is done
We'll have to face another one
And figure out what we'll both do and where
Each offer seems to promise new ways to separate us both
And I don't care what others think is best, I can't just watch you go
If we can stick together, we'll never be alone
We'll run away
Just leave this place
If you're here next to me there's nowhere I'd rather be
So we'll start tonight
Just leave behind
the lives we used to know and venture out to make it on our own
It'll just be harder if we wait.
More settled in with every day
It makes more sense for us to both start new
And the worst thing I'd imagine is to be stuck like this at home
And it might be rough at first but we'll have stories when we're old
If things start to break, we'll pack up and find another way
Can you tell me where you go if you know it,
Is it a oneway street, then show it.
You're not happy and you're not satisfied,
Not comfortable, you're uptight.
Do you wanna go left, do you wanna go right,
What's the best way to win this fight.
Only one satisfaction,
A runaway-train in action.
Stop, look and listen, will you,
I've got something right here for you,
Take the tools and play the game,
Make the rules and no shame.
The situation is a hardcore-scene,
So don't underestimate.
Believe me cause I know what you mean,
Take a break to see what you create.
Do no fear, call my name and I will be here,
Just open up and see clear,
It's just a way to say
My name is X and I'm a runaway.
No time to think what you're looking for,
Here it is but you still want more.
So now you take a hike,
You don't deal with a thing that you don't like.
Give it up, take it up,
make the best of life and just don't stop.
An easy way without traces,
yeah, I see it in their faces.
Tell me all on your mind,
don't leave a small thing behind.
Still wanna know how to get away,
and make it done in the best way.
Runaway, runaway, runaway,
just make my day,
do you know what you're proving, proving.
Runaway, runaway,
just make my day,
think about what you're moving, moving.
Where you gonna stay,
When you run away, when you run away?
What you gonna say,
About the way you play, when you run away.
I take a ride to the other side
cause it feels so nice just to drive and drive and drive.
I'd make amends for the other night
if you'd be here with me holding me tight.
Is this the chance when we fly away?
Cause I need to know if I'm coming back,
I push and pull just to get what I want.
In the end I should know that you bring it all to me.
Reach out, you can go overboard if you want to.
In and out, don't lose control, don't lose control.
Just don't take it back.
And I get so close, but I runaway, I runaway.
Things I fear the most, keep me here to stay, but anyway...
Can we try for right now, free of doubt.
If you give the chance I could try and figure out.
I'm kind of scared because I don't know how.
But I'm watching the close calls and catching my breath now.
There could be time when I'd fly away.
But you need to know that I'm coming back.
Don't want to push and pull anymore,
just to get what I want, when you bring it all to me.
You said you always wanted someone to tell you it's OK.
Well, I guess it's my chance to tell everyone everything.
Can we talk about this?
Give me the chance and we'll fly away.
Can we walk around this?
Give me the chance and we'll fly away.
Chorus:
Run run run runaway with me
It's time to let your heart run free
So run run run runaway with me
Forever we will be
Run runaway
Run runaway
Verse1:
When I saw you dance all alone
That's what I knew, I was coming home
No more lies, no more tears
I need to have you here
Bridge:
I want what you want
You need what I need
Give it to the way we feel tonight
And runaway
Chorus
Run runaway

Verse2:
Take my soul, take my heart
This could be heaven right from the start
I'll touch you here, I'll touch you there
Wanna kiss your body everywhere

Run runaway
You and me
We don't care what friends may say
Take our love and run runaway
You and me
Should be together night and day
Share in our love and run runaway
Bridge
you have stripped my heart of all it's parts
and gave away the scrap for free
you have sold your soul for some control
and gnawed at the hands that tried to love and feed
you are crying out to end the drought
yet it's not your blood that filled this sea
all of the mistakes left in your wake
they all remind me of a younger me
to the parasites that have come and gone
this is your farewell song
to the parasites that have come and gone
this is your farewell song
Maybe right now, this is the best that you've found - to live a life that's
Tearing you down day by day. Maybe right now, you can't seem to find a way
Out and you're afraid to trust in the sound of your own voice, so listen...
Runaway, we're gonna write our perfect story - all the way until the end.
Runaway, if you think something else is waiting, follow me until the end.
So where do you go when all of the places you know, they no longer feel
Like a home? When there's no painted road to lead you to where you should
Be, could you find the strength to believe? That more is waiting if you
Just leave this life behind, and choose today to...
Sometimes you just don't know, but there's a risk worth taking to find the
Life that's waiting. So don't be afraid to make a choice - let go. I'll be
On the street where you live girls talk about their social lives
They're made of lipstick, plastic and paint, a touch of sable in their eyes
All your life all you've asked when's your Daddy gonna talk to you
You were living in another world tryin' to get your message through.
No one heard a single word you said.
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going around your heart.
[Chorus:]
Ooh, she's a little runaway.
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say.
Ooh, she's a little runaway.
A different line every night guaranteed to blow your mind
See you out on the streets, call me for a wild time
So you sit home alone 'cause there's nothing left that you can do
There's only pictures hung in the shadows left there to look at you
You know she likes the lights at nights on the neon Broadway signs
She don't really mind, it's only love she hoped to find
[Repeat chorus]
No one heard a single word she said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going around your heart
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
Now she was the night away
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
Now she was the night away
Hear your voice on the phone
And my heart just died when you said you're not going home.
Where are you? Are you safe?
Are you trying to escape from what you can't undo
Hoping that the world forgets you?
But I can't, no I won't forget you
Everywhere that you turn
Somehow every face is another bridge that you burn
So you think you can't stay
If you could find another life in another place
And hope the world forgets your name
But I can't, no I won't forget you
I know you're out there tonight
Looking for somewhere to hide
Hey Hey Hey
You don't have to runaway
You're hanging over the edge
It's not too late to look back
Hey Hey Hey
You don't have to runaway
You think you lost it all
And there's nothing left of you
There's nowhere you can fall
But love will catch you (love will catch you)
But love will catch you (love will catch you)
Love will catch you (love will catch you)
Hear your voice on the phone
And my heart just died when you said you're not going home.
I hear people talk
I see people walk
They seem so out of touch
I wanna get away so much
All the clockwork toys
Are making too much noise
It's the machinery
It's breaking down O' can't you see
Run runaway with me
The picture doesn't change
It's just a frozen frame
I wanna break the ice
I wanna go to paradise
There is nowhere to hide
I'll take you for a ride
But not if you kiss and tell
I don't mean on a carousel
One day I'm
To say my
Three wishes come true
Till then I pretend I'm
Escaping with you
There's a reason to live and there's a reason to die
There's a reason to stay and there's a reason to fly
You don' know what you want but you can't say goodbye
There's a reason to give and there's a reason to try now
It's all gone and you're feeling alone
You can't look back but you can't go home
you just can't take this another day
But there's no one to blame cuz you're runnin away
Way, way, way, way you run away
Way, way, way, way you run away
Way, way, way, way you run away
you run away
You're so damn scared of settling down
You try to make it right but keep messin around
You're getting the bills but forgetting to pay
And you're trying your best to stop running away
Way, way, way, way you run away
Way, way, way, way you run away
Way, way, way, way you run away
All in do time for you my friend
Everything comes 'round in the end
All in do time for you my friend
Everything comes 'round in the end
Pretty soon there'll be nowhere to run
No more friends and no more fun
The future looks bleak and the sky is grey
But you're sick and tired of motherfucking runnin away now
Way, way, way, way you run away
Way, way, way, way you run away
Way, way, way, way you run away
Truly Julie, in another day
You know it really isn’t far away that I’m longing to be
with you
You’ll be waiting for another sun, but that’s when things
begin to come undone
There’s sense that’s running in the air, and that’s the
time that you should never dare
Running away you can’t pretend, up to the door and back
again with me
I know
Running away it drives me wild, even someone who makes me
mild like you
I know
There’s a place where eveything is free and everyone is
just like you and me like i’ve never seen before
But i would never ever wanna go, to a place unless you
told me so, then you said that you wanted more
There’s a sense that’s running in the air and that’s the
time that you should never dare
There's a runaway child
On the streets tonight
Only needed love
She's a fallen angel's sacrifice
Only needed love
And she don't know why
Mama never cared or cried
Daddy's little girl has her
Deepest scars inside
She says it's alright
I'm glad it's all over
There's just one problem
That she'll have to face
She'll be back, jack
Turnin 'em over, makin' money
Turning tricks and dates
She don't know where she's goin'
Only she know where she's been
And if that pain inside's still growin'
Don't give in
All alone when the cold winds blow
She'll sell a piece of her soul
Take these broken wings of love
And learn to fly, rise above
Keep your faith in god and love
`Cause heaven holds a place in your name
And there just ain't enough
Love going round `n round `n round `n round
(Solo)
Take these broken wings of love
And learn to fly, rise above
Keep your faith in god and love
`Cause heaven holds a place in your name
There's a suicide call on the line tonight
Only needing love
There's a fallen angel in my sight
Only needed love
And she don't know why
Mama never cared or cried
Daddy's little girl holds her
Deeper scars inside
All alone where the cold winds blow
Stand alone when the water flows
Come on, baby
It'll be alright
Save your soul tonight
Take these broken wings of love
And learn to fly, rise above
Keep your faith in god and love
`Cause heaven holds a place in your name
Take these broken wings of love
And learn to fly, rise above
Keep your faith in god and love
`Cause heaven holds a place in your name
There's a runaway child
On the street tonight
She's a fallen angel's sacrifice
And there's a suicide call on the line tonight
There's a blood red stain on the wire tonight
I would give my life for you
You mean the world to me
Baby baby baby babe
You know I love you (uh huh Come on yea yea)
And I wanna be together when you runaway (Its NB Ryders)
Just me and you (Same Klick new title)
Just you and me
Will you runaway with me
The day I wrote these words for you I cried
Could of died that day a happy and complete man
Cuz in the palm of my hands
Everything that I dreamed for and more
And you know I'm down for yours
Forever and life the reason I made you my wife is because
You see me for me the real me and love me unconditionally
And even with the circumstances that I had you still gave me a chance
And that's why I live and breathe for you and the kids
And you give me more than what this thing could ever give to me
And now my life is satisfied and complete visions all coming true
Yea of me and you placing rings on each others fingers saying "I do"
You stuck with me through my thick and my thin to go back and live life over again
Nah this is my destiny it was worth the agony to get the ecstasy.
We can runaway and spend some time
I'll always be the one right by your side
Tell the whole world you belong to me
You are my everything
I wanna run away with you
do do do do do do do do
I never ever met a shorty that was quite like you
And even tho it was wrong I fell in love with you
Now we sit here not really knowing what to do
But I'm sure that you know I'll give the world for you
If I could runaway with you I wouldn't even think twice
I promise girl I'll put it all on the line
I know forever seems to be a long time
But thats what I'm seeing when I look into your eyes
And it don't matter what your friends might say
Cuz I know deep inside you feel the same way
You could tell me what u want but I could read your mind
So quit lying to yourself and put hand mine
I get excited everytime you come close
And being right here with you is what I love the most
So any time your feeling lonely inside
We could runaway together and leave this world behind
We can runaway and spend some time
I'll always be the one right by your side
Tell the whole world you belong to me
You are my everything
I wanna run away with you
do do do do do do do do
Waking up in the morning and your still not there
Can't we runaway and escape somewhere
Missing your soft touch your lips next to mine
Holdin up your hands as you look in my eyes
What must of happened to the love we both felt inside
Emotions were strong and the feeling was right
Now we don't speak anymore you went your own way
And thats what loves about then I was meant left
Go ahead and take your time if thats what you need
My loves for you forever my heart for you bleeds
Things happen for a reason so I ask my self should I be strong
And wait or move on to some one else
I know you still love me I could feel it inside
You always kept it real no games no lies
If your ever feelin lonely feel the need to get away
Call me up I'll be there together we'll run away girl
We can runaway and spend some time
I'll always be the one right by your side
Tell the whole world you belong to me
You are my everything
I wanna run away with you
Can you dig it
Something in the air tonight
Got a one way ticket
Baby, don't you wanna ride
Got to make it
Make it to the other side
I've got demons
Snapping at my heels tonight
CHORUS
I just want to runaway
Turn me loose
Got people around running me down I can't stay
I just want to get away, I just want to get away now.
Get them off my back today
Can u feel it
Im stuck inside in a hurricane
Chasing rainbows
Cant u see im going insane
I wanna be a free man
But im spinning on this crazy wheel
Im jumping for the high bar
Cant u dig it
No longer know what I feel

CHORUS
I just want to runaway
Turn me loose
Got people around running me down I can't stay
I just want to get away, I just want to get away now.

Turn me loose, turn me loose
Turn me loose, turn me loose
(Interlude)
Got to make it, got to make it
Got to break it, got to make it
CHORUS
I just want to runaway
Just want to runaway
Got people around running me down I can't stay
Can't stay here long now
I just want to get away
I just got to get away
Get them off my back today
I just want to runaway

Turn me loose, runaway runaway
Got people around running me down I can't stay
Runaway, runaway

Why are you so ungrateful
You nuh see that Jah give we life after all
Check yourself before you wreck yourself
Me see that Jah Jah give we life after all
Still none a dem nuh give no thanks at all
Dem think dem a rise me see dem a fall
Fall dem a fall – fall dem a fall
How long you want to run away
Run away from yourself you nuh see that the truth ago reveal
And every day you got to pray – well that you fi go do and make your life one a the
real
How you fi expect love and you still a glorifie the gun
How you want clarity if acoke you nuh stop bun
Your dirty lifestyle nuh give you no way to turn
You still nuh realize that you wrong
After you come out of your church you beat your babymother down
And then you tell her you're sorry but your head did full a rum
She couldn't tek your excuse and your flattering tongue
That's why she left you today and still a ask
How long you want to run away
Run away from yourself you nuh see that the truth ago reveal
And every day you got to pray – well that you fi go do and make your life one a the
real
Dem say dem a the dolphin but me see dem a the shark
Dem stand ina the spotlight and live in the dark
Claim say dem a grounded but me see dem a skylark
So to me dem can't talk
In this time and this ages man hafi be smart
Think before you talk and watch the road wha' you a walk
From you look ina your conscience you can't miss the mark
And make a joyful sound unto the Lord
How long you want to run away
Run away from yourself you nuh see that the truth ago reveal
And every day you got to pray – well that you fi go do and make your life one a the
real
Nuff a dem me see nuh practice what dem a preach
Dem hufi go back a school so a no me dem can teach
A fi dem dirty talk dem call it freedom of speech
Me wonder who dem try reach
Righteousness uno fi go check it
Golong and do some good ina your life wickedness uno fileft it
Cleanheart always will make it
And from your see a chance ina your life
You better take it nuh reject it
Everyone needs a place to runaway, runaway
Summer night, moonlit sky
Tearing pages from a magazine, she cries
"I don't wanna be the lonely one tonight"
She said, "I came to this place, full of dreams
Young and innocent and only 16
Now I wonder if it's too late to turn back"
So she runs, and she hides
And she dries the tears from her eyes
And the night goes on, and on, and on
She's in the twilight zone
Yeah, you gotta run, run, runaway
It's such a long way home
When it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, runaway
Perfect day, feels like spring
Can see forever but you can't see anything
Now I wonder why they call it paradise
It's a crime, it's a shame
And they won't remember your name
And your life goes on, and on, and on
It's like the twilight zone
Yeah, you gotta run, run, runaway
But she won't go home
So she's gotta run, run, runaway
She came from a small town
So tired of getting pushed around
In the dark of the night, no one around
She'll run from this shabby town, yeah yeah yeah
It's a laugh, it's a game
Don't you let it drive you insane
'Cause your life goes on, and on, and on
It's like the twilight zone
Yeah, you gotta run, run, runaway
But she won't go home
When it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, runaway
She's in the twilight zone
Yeah, you gotta run, run, runaway
It's such a long way home
When it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, runaway
It's like the twilight zone
Yeah, you gotta run, run, runaway
But she won't go home
When it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, runaway
She's in the twilight zone
Yeah, you gotta run, run, runaway
It's such a long way home
I'm sick of all the days gone by
When I didn't have you to myself
I'm tired of E-mail conversations
It could be someone else
You say you need me
Like the roses need sun or they'll die
No matter what the people say
Let's run away
Let's run away
Miles away
Let the people say what they wanna say
It's our fantasy
I'm in love with thee
Let forever be our brand new policy
Let's run away
Far away
Love will take us there we'll be okay
Make this dream come true
I'll be next to you
Let's just run away
I can smell your perfume off everything I wore
When we kissed that night.
I can see your face on the wall
Even through the dark of the night.
And when you call my cell phone
My heart skips a beat out of time
If you really love me don't leave me, girl
You don't have to say goodbye
We did it all for love
Let's run away, Let's run away
Ohh don't you remember when we used to sit
And we'd dream of a home that we'd share
Oh, we'd stand in the crowd
And we'd talk out real loud
Girl, you'd swear we were already there
We did it all for love
Let's run away
Let's run away
Sometimes I feel like I wanna runaway
Pack my things and make a quick getaway
From the drama surrounding, and the world around me
Sometimes I feel like I wanna runaway
Pack my things and make a quick getaway
But my heart keeps punding, and it wont allow me
I need some time to get away from the problems in my life
To relieve my mind and put aside all of this shit attackin me inside
All of this drama surrounding me, drives me crazy constantly
I just need some time to breathe and take my mind off of everything
Try to keep it behind me, but I'm always reminded
Of everything that bothers me, like you can't take breaks from reality
Just keep on moving and keep on doing what will keep my life running smoothly
Just a moment to relax, sit back alone, no one to bother me, I'll finally be free
I gotta runaway
Gotta do it now
Gotta find some time alone somehow
I gotta runaway
Gotta do it now
Gonna make it all work out
Say it's true,
There's nothing like me and you
I'm not alone,
Tell me you feel it too
I have run away
I have run away, yeah... , yeah
I have run away
I have run away with you
Cause I am, I'm falling in love with you
No I never, I never gonna stop
Falling in love with you
Close the door,
Lay down upon the floor
And by candlelight,
Make love to me through the night
I have run away
I have run away, yeah... , yeah
I have run away, run away
I have run away with you
Cause I am, I'm falling in love with you
No I never I'm never gonna stop
Falling in love with you...
With you...
Cause I have run away
I have run away, yeah... , yeah
I have run away
I have run away with you
Cause I am, I'm falling in love with you
No I never I'm never gonna stop
Falling in love with you...
With you...
Runaway...
Runaway
Every new day that you start
Plans the minute you're flagging your heart, heart
Where you waking up today
My little runaway?
Every red eye that you cross
Makes the next feel serious
Where you waking up today
My little runaway?
My little runaway
My little runaway
My little runaway
Every silver shell that you crush
Will be enough
Where you gonna sleep today
My little runaway?
When you feel like everyone
Wants to kill the unicorn
Where you waking up today
My little runaway?
My little runaway
My little runaway
My little runaway
CuÌdame bien, lo mÌo es serio,
quiero que estÈs a mi lado esta vez
Voy a fumar mientras te espero,
Voy a formar, un espacio mejor
Runa, runa, runa runaway, away
Runa, runa, runa runaway, away
Voy a escribir con nubes tu nombre,
voy a soñar con tu cara hoy,
voy a pedir que nunca te vayas
quiero escuchar, m·s palabras de amor.
Runa, runa, runa runaway, away
Runa, runa, runa runaway, away
(BIS)
CuÌdame bien, que siempre me pierdo
Quiero que estÈs, a mi lado esta vez
Voy a tomar tu mano en mi mano,
para formar un espacio mejor
Runa, runa, runa runaway, away
Runa, runa, runa runaway, away
(BIS)
Away, away away
Away, away away
CuÌdame, cuidame bien, que lo mÌo es serio
Alright, now take one look at me,
Cause it's the last you'll ever see because I'm leaving tonight.
And just think about it, you'll never have to be embarrassed,
In front of your friends and family again, so enjoy it.
And the air will be better,
It will feel much thinner.
There will be no more excuses,
And no more covering up your face.
And I'm going to run away with my baby,
Get married and maybe someday we'll have kids that you'll never meet.
And I'm gonna tell them stories of how the grandpa would bathe in the glory of all his power,
And use his fake friends.
And see the air will be better,
It will feel much thinner.
It will feel like heaven.
It will feel so good when I am gone.
Now see I don't know what you think, you're just a kid.
Only 18, where do you think you're going?
See, you've got nothing to stand on,
You don't have a better place to live.
And you'll be wishing that you never left.
And the air will be thicker,
It will be hard to breathe sometimes.
You won't know what hit you,
You'll be sad and lonely before you know it.
Now, don't go make a decision that's going to leave your life down a collision course of failure.
But you're a grown up now, you're 18.
Just don't come running back to me when you need something,
My door is locked.
And the air will be humid,
It will give you headaches.
It will make you sweat.
It will be a mistake if you go,
And I won't be there to cover up your tracks no more.
Dad, I'm leaving tonight,
You can't scare me anymore.
And I don't need this in my life,
I don't need it anymore.
Dad, I'm leaving tonight,
You can't scare me anymore.
And I don't need this in my life,
I don't need it anymore.
Goodbye.
I said all that I'll say, so I stand with no apologies
I've popped all that I popped, wasn't too recently that it got to me
Those of yall that love Joe, gotta admit the shit was a lot to see
Today I take all of the credit like I did away with modesty
I lost weight, lost faith, I got caught up in that vacuum
My stomach turned and my eyes burned, and I became best friends with the bathroom
Today it takes all the strength I have inside for me to avoid the rush
Face pokered over the toilet, all you hear is a royal flush
Was under the control, though they warned me about addiction
Mind manifested again in the form of a prescription
And it's funny what the effects of that little pill'll do
Funny shit that keeps you alive can also kill you
But it's my life, guess I'm stuck in it
Sometimes I wanna just be normal like them other kids
The demon I battle with every night is simply drugs and shit
But I'll runaway from it all if God deems that I've had enough of it
They say don't get lost, follower the leader
And don't do that, be a believer
When the sun goes down, you better hide
It's a dangerous world, better stay inside and
Run along, run along
It's a long long way, home from here
Run along, run along
It's a long long way, home from here, yeah
Uh, it go
How come they can roll? Yall tell me how come they can smoke, they can drink?
They get to do whatever they want and it don't interrupt the way they think
They all get to be regular, why is it only me this odd?
Me who can't even stand up straight, me who can't even keep a job
Maybe I'm asking for too much, a tiny piece of normalcy
Or answer to any one of my fucking prayers that's asking what's wrong with me
Maybe I'm tired of being unique, tired of being that outcast
I'm tired of me being the only one, so tired of you all not knowing about that
I'm tired of it all, want me to fall a spectacle, for the crowd to see
Or being the only one with faith, I'm tired of everybody doubting me
I'm tired of responding to grown ass folks that think so motha fuckin childishly
Aches, wish I could take my parents' genes the fuck up out of me
Tired of wanting to run somewhere, tired of having to bare it all
Tired of you fucks constantly taking from me and I'm willing to share it all
Tired of being objective, I'm tired of having to hear it all
But being alone is the only way I know to never be near it all
They say don't get lost, follower the leader
And don't do that, be a believer
When the sun goes down, you better hide
It's a dangerous world, better stay inside and
Run along, run along
It's a long long way, home from here
Run along, run along
So much time, so much searching
All our lives are uncertain
We don't know where to go
We don't know where to go
And it's slowly taking it's toll
All the doors keep on closing
Dreams are constantly broken
How do you let it go
When everything that you know is out of sight
I was holding on to be queen
Now I can't breathe underwater
And the whole world is watching me drown
But I know that I still believe
That one day I'll be wearing the crown
Runaway, runaway, runaway
If you want to
Runaway, runaway, runaway
It's gonna haunt you
Runaway, runaway, runaway
You're defeated, feeling cheated
But you should never
Runaway, runaway, runaway
Just keep moving, keep going
Just keep learning, keep growing
To push all your fears aside
Gotta enjoy the ride
You will survive
I was holding on to be queen
Now I can't breathe underwater
And the whole world is watching me drown
But I know that I still believe
That one day I'll be wearing the crown
Runaway, runaway, runaway
If you want to
Runaway, runaway, runaway
It's gonna haunt you
Runaway, runaway, runaway
You're defeated, feeling cheated
But you should never
[Verse 1:]
Feels like it was yesterday
Watching everything move away
Wish I knew the right words to say
(Oh runaway)
See you looking at my photograph
Reminiscing all the days we had
Baby I just want to bring you back to me
[Chorus:]
It's too late
I don't want you to go
It's too late
You're my life you're my soul
It's too late
You're walking away
It's never too late
I got something to say
Baby won't you runaway, runaway, c'mon and runaway
Tell me won't you runaway, runaway with me
Take you to another place, another place, c'mon and runaway
Baby won't you runaway, runaway with me
[Verse 2:]
I've never ever done you wrong
Baby talk and you say we don't belong
Don't give a damn what they say no
(Girl runaway)
Now were sitting here face-to-face
Time is here for you to make a break
Can't see no tears in your eyes
[Chorus:]
It's too late
I don't want you to go
It's too late
You're my life you're my soul
It's too late
You're walking away
It's never too late
I got something to say
Baby won't you runaway, runaway, c'mon and runaway
Tell me won't you runaway, runaway with me
Take you to another place, another place, c'mon and runaway

Introducing Earth, Wind & Fire
Yah yah yah
Come on come on come on
No money in my pocket
Gotta get a no limit
So I became America's most wanted
All I ever wanted was a fancy car
A crib for my mom and a mastercard
Baby you know it's in Hollywood
New cop flicks with Clint Eastwood
Went from a teen to a young adult
No excuses aint't my fault
Runaway
We living like runaways
Wake up
Stretching in the morning
Trying to make it through the day
Brush my teeth
Hit the streets
Where there's heat

Yo G&B; where you at?
Momma came home from a hard days work
At day time a maid at night time a nurse
Work so hard to make sure we survived
Living a ghetto paradise
Sometimes I wake up screaming in the middle of the night
Hoping that darkness brings me light
Praying for that better day where we won't have to runaway
Runaway
We living like runaways

Graffiti decorations under a sky of dust
A constant wave of tension on top of broken trust
The lessons that you taught me
I learn were never true
Now I find myself in question
(They point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(You point the finger at me again)
I wanna run away, never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers, no more lies
I wanna shut the door and open up my mind
Paper bags and angry voices under a sky of dust
Another wave of tension has more than filled me up
All my talk of taking action
These words were never true
Now I find myself in question
(They point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(You point the finger at me again)
I wanna run away, never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers, no more lies
I wanna shut the door and open up my mind
I'm gonna run away and never say goodbye
(Gonna run away, gonna run away, gonna run away, gonna run away)
I'm gonna run away and never wonder why
(Gonna run away, gonna run away, gonna run away, gonna run away)
I'm gonna run away and open my mind
(Gonna run away, gonna run away, gonna run away, gonna run away)
(Gonna run away, gonna run away, gonna run away, gonna run away)
I wanna run away, never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers, no more lies
I wanna shut the door and open up my mind
I wanna run away and open up my mind
I wanna run away and open up my mind
I wanna run away and open up my mind

Well, I waited long time sweatin it
Gettin jerked but yea I'm gettin it
Early mornin, stiff as dawn and 'em, cuz a brother give the mornin off
And then we doin in, paranoid to new swearin

So much change and true it in, you would of cared to wish the u-nion
She's not a phony, turn the Sony off, you better overcome the lonely of
Although a brother lettin that, thus don't know where I'm headin at
To see, even though we fought of it

When I know she's gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know she's gonna be wit him, so hallelujah, praise God King
And I know you're gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know you gonna be wit him, can't belive that this is happenin

Well, I should say fine and phone wit coin

When I know you're gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know you gonna be wit him, can't believe this is happenin

Seems I know you're gonna runaway, I know you're gonna be wit him

Cause you'll never know what you mean to me
Under my heart

I'm dying to be with you
And you'd kill to be with me
And I'm dying to say that you're just a runaway, a runaway
And I can not believe that you're just a runaway, a runaway
You said that this
Would never work

Don't runaway

Don't runaway
I'm dying to say that you're just a runaway, a runaway
My life might be different but at least I can say
I trust my own rules and I trust my own way
Don't judge me by the way I feel
My thoughts are genuine my life is real
I don't know why I don't make a big deal
Sometimes I wish I could run away
When I wake up every morning
Every single day
The sun is still shining but my sky's still gray
And I don't know what to think
Everything that's been said and taught to me
Fades away like a somber symphony
And I don't know how to feel
I listen to what I've been told before,
but it doesn't seem to work anymore
And I don't know what to do
Sleepless nights and hopeless dreams
Out of reach is how things seem
And I don't know what to think
Another time, another place
Having thoughts I can't erase
And I don't know how to feel
Just hold on, I'll meet you there
It'll work this time I swear
And I don't know what to do
Like all the people
Say, be like gentleman
Let the younger to be

Do you ever think about running away
'cause i was thinkin' about leavin' today
We'll follow forever where our hearts wanna go
Maybe we'll live somewhere where nobody knows our names
Then things might change for the good
I wanna be somewhere so far away
To lie under the night at the end of another good day
I can't tell you how long we'll be gone
But as long as we're together then forever's never too long
Too long, oh no
Do you ever think about not comin' back
Hoppin' on a train and we'll burn up the tracks
We'll jump off somewhere that we don't know how to say
Maybe hitch a ride from someone who can tell us the way
To where these things might change for the good
I wanna be somewhere so far away
To lie under the night at the end of another good day
I can't tell you how long we'll be gone
But as long as we're together then forever's never too
Where forever is never too long
Not with you right here by me
Maybe, maybe we'll just see
Where this road will lead for us
I wanna be somewhere so far away
To lie under the night at the end of another good day
I can't tell you how long we'll be gone
But as long as we're together then forever's never too
I wanna be somewhere so far away
To lie under the night at the end of another good day
I can't tell you how long we'll be gone
But as long as we're together then forever's never too
Forever is never too long
As I walk along,
I wonder what went wrong,
With our love, a love that was so strong.
And as I still walk on,
I think of the things we've done
Together, a-while our hearts were young.
I'm a-walkin' in the rain,
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain,
Wishin' you were here by me,
To end this misery
And I wonder--
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder,
Why,
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away,
Yes, and I wonder,
A-where she will stay-ay,
My little runaway,
Run, run, run, run, runaway.
I'm a-walkin' in the rain,
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain,
Wishin' you were here by me,
To end this misery
And I wonder--
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder,
Why,
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away,
Yes, and I wonder,
A-where she will stay-ay,
My little runaway,
Run, run, run, run, runaway.
Run, run, run, run, runaway.
There are only two places I could go
One is dark and it feels so hollow
And it lets me in only to swallow
To much water until I drown, baby
And the other place is calm and sweet
I can almost feel wings beneath my feet
And I don't care if it feels to deep
I like it, I like it
And I know you wanna take a chance
And I know you wanna understand me
And let me in
But you runaway from what you know
And you runaway from what you don't
I don't wanna wait for you to change your mind
Don't take the time show me your love tonight
There are only two places that I see
One is strong, and the other one feels so weak
And this plan feels so strange to me
It's all I see, baby
And I know you wanna let it go
And i know you wanna flow this love
But you can't
So you, runaway from what you know
And you, runaway from what you don't
I don't wanna wait for you to change your mind
Don't take the time, show me your love tonight
Oh yeah, tonight
All the angels know what I know
You're an angel that sings to me
It's the greatest secret of all
I am free from thinking
But you runaway from what you know
And you runaway from what you don't
I don't wanna wait for you to change your mind
Don't take the time, let's make love
Don't runaway from what you know
Don't runaway, just let it go
I don't wanna wait for you to tell me what's right
Don't fight it, let's make love tonight
Oh yeah, tonight, oh yeah, oh
Yeah, baby, oh yeah
If I dreamed, I would dream of you.
If I live I would, live for you.
There comes a time when we must overcome our fears.
Fall on our face and let love reveal.
You are the light in the darkness father.
I'm drowning myself once again
Of fighting until to the end
I'm dying to feel once again
But I time to slip it away
Time to consumed another day
I'm tired of being just to sing
(Chorus)
I know that I do not deserve you
This time I'm falling away now
Goodbye I never meant to hurt
Cause this time I'm running away now
Run... Run... Run...
I watching the light mess my eye
Is this is signal to goodbye
Or should I ignore all the signs
I'm pretending to be in my own
But I'm guess you waiting to hate this song
I taking the sense of my own
(Chorus)
I know that I do not deserve you
This time I'm falling away now
Goodbye I never meant to hurt
Cause this time I'm running away now
Run... Run... Run...
Can you paint me a sky?
With dark violet clouds like your eyes
I'll be a star that lost all it's lights in the night
If I turn on my back would you react from this pain?
I'm lost and abused loss and confused to your mind
So I said...
(Chorus)
I know that I do not deserve you
This time I'm falling away now
Goodbye I never meant to hurt
Cause this time I'm running away now
I wanna know
The structure of your heart
Why do you tear
My broken soul apart?
Is it a dream?
Or my reality?
Love comes without
after warranty
Ooo I want to runaway
You tell me nothing else but lies
I'm singin'
Ooo I try to runaway
Cause I just want to live my life
I'm singin'
Ooo I want to runaway
As long as you are by my side
I'm singin'
Ooo I try to runaway
But I can't find a place to hide
No, I am not
You're f*c*i*g second choice
No, I am not
Turning down my voice
Until you understand
There's nothing to command
Until you realize
That we can touch the skies
Can you feel?
It's out of control
Can you feel?
There's nothing at all
Ooo I want to runaway
You tell me nothing else but lies
I'm singin'
Ooo I try to runaway
Cause I just want to live my life
I'm singin'
Ooo I want to runaway
As long as you are by my side
I'm singin'
Ooo I try to runaway
Once upon a time
Or so that's how the story goes
She walked among all the steps
From the prologue to the epilogue
Through her love she goes
Waiting in space all alone
And she falls so easily
And she stays so close
Hold the page, run around, in circles again
The light is so close to the end
Anticipate, take a step
Until the end
So in your shoes
I will runaway
And in these shoes
I'll run far away
So in the end
Will you choose?
And when you do
Then who?
Well so...
Dream about an airplane
And bring me so close to you
And even though we come and go
Let's keep this alive
The dialogue's dulling up
So let's turn the page
And hope for the best
And see what I wrote for you
Hold the page, run around, in circles again
The light is so close to the end
Anticipate, take a step
Until the end
So in your shoes
I will runaway
And in these shoes
I'll run far away
So in the end
Will you choose?
And when you do
Then who?
And bring us back to
Once upon a time
To a time and place
The "perfect setting"
That we can never share
Cause you were never there
Remember the time
When he asked you out of line
Once upon a time
Let's bring back two
With me and you
I hope you know how I feel about everything
I can't see you now, without you,
Without me, far away, and alone, with me
Lalayo ako
At sapatos na to
Tatakbo akong malayo
Pag tapos na
Pipili ka ba?
At kung sakali man (na)
Di sino?
So in your shoes
I will runaway
And in your shoes
I'll run so far away
To finally meet you
Will I lose
At halfway through?
As I walk along I wonder
What went wrong with our love
A love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of
The things we've done together
While our hearts were young
I'm a-walking in the rain
Tears are falling and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery and I wonder
I wah, wah, wah, wah wonder
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away
And I wonder when she will stay
My little runaway a-run, run, run, run, a-runaway
I'm a-walking in the rain
Tears are falling and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery and I wonder
I wah, wah, wah, wah wonder
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away
And I wonder when she will stay
My little runaway, a-run, run, run, run, a-runaway
Run run run run runaway
Run run run run runaway
[Chorus:]
I you leave your girl I'll my leave my man
Let's pack our things we don't need no plans
Let's runaway to another place
Grab your things I'll grab mine too
Your girl can't do it like I do
Let's runaway
Let's runaway
[Verse 1:]
She can't(she can't)
Do it like I do
I bet if you sit down and compare
No ones better for you (no ones better for you)
Than me (then me)
Can't you see'
Suga
You been hurting for to long
Why let her do you wrong
You see how it supposed to be
When leave and come with me
[Chorus:]
I you leave your girl I'll my leave my man
Let's pack our things we don't need no plans
Let's runaway to another place
Grab your things I'll grab mine too
Your girl can't do it like I do
Let's runaway
Let's runaway
[Verse 2:]
You told me that she cheating
And your afraid to pack leave
And start brand new
Make plans to
Forget everything you been through
But she's that who's breaking your heart
I promise if leave I'll never part
From you
Make sure that you'd be like
She's never loved you before
[Chorus:]
I you leave your girl I'll my leave my man
Let's pack our things we don't need no plans
Let's runaway to another place
Grab your things I'll grab mine too
Your girl can't do it like I do
Let's runaway
Face down; this is where it leads you - too far.
Buried covered now, you'll find peace - in the earth aground.
Stop now, there's no point in breathing - it's not allowed.
On the surface, how can you find - reason to move on?
Until then you can runaway.
Do you best to hide your face.
And oh I know you best;
I know you get what you get - you get what you deserve.
Hush now, yeah don't say a word - its out in the open,
And tell me how can you deal with all this wait?
Speak now, you must have a secret kept down,
Down where you can keep it - I need you to spill your guts.
Until then you can runaway,
Do you best to hide your face.
And oh I know you best.
I know you get what you get - until then you can runaway.
Do your best to hide your face.
And oh I know you best.
I know you get what you get you - get what you deserve.
Speak now you must have a secret kept down,
Down where you can keep it - I need you to spill your guts.
Until then you can runaway,
Do your best to hide your face.
And oh I know you best.
I know you get what you get - until then you can runaway.
Do your best to hide your face.
And oh I know you best,
I know you get what you get and all you get what you,
You get what you get, you get what you,
I won't pretend
That I did the best I can
It's an awful shame
But am I to blame
Like a train crash we collide into each other
How good it looks, from afar
I said some things just to comfort your heart
And it's late at night and I wonder where you are
(I know there must be something wrong)
I'm being played for a fool yes I know but I'm not one for letting go
Cause I don't like where its going
And it's bound to get deeper
And it's never gonna get any better unless we try
You said I don't like this
Well I don't either
Well pardon me if I just don't suffice
I won't pretend
That I did the best I can
My mind is set and it's full of regret
And I say bye bye (and I say bye bye)
And I say bye bye to love
And it's late at night and I wonder where you are
(I know there must be something wrong)
I'm being played for a fool yes I know but I'm not one for Letting go
Cause I don't like where it's going
And it's bound to get deeper
And it's never gonna get any better unless we try
You said I don't like this
Well I don't either
Well pardon me if I just don't suffice
Run Away
Run Away
Run Away
Run A-Way
Cause I don't like where it's going
And it's bound to get deeper
And it's never gonna get any better unless we try
You said I don't like this
Well I don't either
Woo oooh
Yeah ah
My head's full of thought
Thoughts of you
And I'm distracted so easy
Thinking what to do
So unsure, so unfamiliar
Am I wrong to think that something could happen
Will you fall for me
I need to know, the way I'd like you to
Baby, will you fall for me
The way I've fallen for you
Im not like myself
And I'm playing the role of someone else
And my hearts beating so fast
I can't stop it
And Im so unsure
So unfamiliar
Am I wrong to think that soething could happen
Will you fall for me
The way I'd like you to
Will you fall for me
The way I've fallen for you
The way I've fallen for you
The way I've fallen for you
Fallen for, fallen for you
For you..
So unsure, so unfamiliar
Am I wrong to think,
That something could happen
Was I wrong to think I
Will you fall for me
The way I'd like you to
Will you fall for me
The way I've fallen for you
The way I've fallen for you
Why don't we...Why don't we
Why don't we...Why don't we
Take me away
Release me from the cage
Free me from the pain
And let me feel no shame
The stars spin circles around the bad times
You splashed your water on my fire sign
The fortune teller told us to unwind
Come on run away
Runaway...Runaway...Runaway
Why don't we
Why don't we
I've felt invisible for a long time
This town will smother what's left of mine
Untaken chances come back to life
Come on run away
Runaway...Runaway...Runaway
I've been I've been all
I've been I've been all
I've been I've been all around the world dream
Let's go free...Let's go free
Why don't we...Why don't we
You've been saying that you want to go
I'm finally ready to let go
Let's go...Let's go...Let's go
I am finally ready
Take me away
Release me from the cage
Free me from the pain
And let me feel no shame
Let's go free...Let's go free
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run, run, run
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run, run, run
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run
As I walk alone, I wonder what went wrong
With our love a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of
The things we've done together
While our hearts were young
I'm walking in the rain
In the park and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery and I wonder
(I wonder, I wonder)
I won-won-won-won wonder
(I wonder, I wonder)
Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why he ran away?
(I wonder, I wonder)
(I wonder, I wonder)
And I wonder where he will stay
My little runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run, run, run
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run
And as I still walk on I think of
The things we've done together
While our hearts were young
I'm walking in the rain
In the park and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery and I wonder
(I wonder, I wonder)
I won-won-won-won wonder
(I wonder, I wonder)
Oh, why, why, why, why, why, why he ran away?
(I wonder, I wonder)
(I wonder, I wonder)
And I wonder where he will stay
My little runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run, run, run
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run, run, run
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run
Run, run, runaway
Run, run
Always on the run, run, run...
when I see the soldiers come
burning down the houses
raping girls and children
it's the time to run away
when I see the fire grow
running through your fields
destroying crop and animals
it's the time to run away
when I see the water run
floating nearly everything
like a muddy avalanche
it's the time to run away
when I hear the earthquake roar
see the cities going down
human beings live in fear
it's the time to run away
leave your body
leave the earth
see the light
of the universe
leave your body
free your soul
feel the peace
The face of an angel
But you have a heart of stone
They don't see who you are,
They're not here when you cry
Never someone to rescue you
When you're falling in the dark
Alone in misery,
No one can live without a dream
No one to see what's going on
No one to heal your wounds so deep
You are at the morning of your life
Chorus:
Breakin' the chains and runnin' away
It's not a game you're too desperate
Breakin' the chains and runnin' away
It's time to take the way to freedom
They need to change your minds
To put out the fire in your eyes
But you are so strong
And they never can break your soul
'Cause you know you can find
Everyone is just like you
Too young and too wild but
Without lie and without sin
No one to see what's going on
No one to heal your wounds so deep
Time is here so take your chance
Breakin' the chains and runnin' away
It's time to take the way to freedom
Run, run, runaway
Run, run, runaway
tonight i'll run away
tonight i'll run away
tonight will be the night
that i learn to fly
i'll learn to fly, run away
catch me - catch me
tonight i'll explore my life.
no it's finally time to let
out all the bothers me
and push all my anger away.
like a small wanderer only to next door,
but now i'm up and wondering aobut a lot mre,
So is there anywhere you want to go?
She says any place is home
But is there anywhere you want to go?
Her crooked smile, how about Mexico?
We'll get back
You will surely be, you'll be the death of me
Yeah, you are surely all the better parts of me
So get back
They won't take us alive
I don't even think I saw it coming
No they won't take us alive
You're the ending of the movie,
The one I meant to see
You're the ending of the movie,
The kind that fucks with your head
We'll get back
Oh here we go all the same,
But do you ever get outside your brain?
Oh here we go, all the same
I'll be around for a couple of days
So get back
They won't take us alive
I don't even think I saw it coming
No they won't take us alive
I don't want to be this,
I don't want to feel so left behind
Cause when my world stops turning
I see no reason to runaway
I don't even know why
everyone seems to pass me by
my walls are caving in to the empty sound
of a lost feeling
O, and every time that I stop believing in this world of mine,
I'm deceiving, I don't wanna find,
another reason to runaway from you
Who are, I've seen through the night
I have tried, So hard all my life
Just to find, What once was a might
It's a new kind of rain, pourin' down
Is everybody Dying
Everybody feels so far away
Have we all lost hope
Are strung all this bled routine
O, and every time that I stop believing in this world of mine,
I'm deceiving, I don't wanna find,
another reason to runaway from you
Who are, I've seen through the night
I have tried, So hard all my life
Just to find, What once was a might
It's a new kind of rain, pourin' down
I didn't want to be this
I didn't want to feel so left behind
Cause when my world stopped turning
I saw no reason to runaway
Edit |
I'm dead scared
To walk away
How can I stop
What people say
When I get scared
Never say dare
You can call me the runaway
Gotta keep on marching
Never can stop me
Out of my way
I'm picking up speed
A runaway
A getaway
Run don't stop
Don't never stay
The highway
Under my sole
I ran away
Trying to find someday
I am looking like Sunday
I'm walking
Find a place we can hide
Step aside for a while
I just want to, just want to...
I'm walking
I found you
Along the way
Now we can't stop
We hide away
When you get scared
Never say dare
People call us the runaways
Gotta keep on marching
Never can stop us
Out of the way
We're picking up speed
A runaway
A getaway
Run don't stop
Don't never stay
The highway
Under my sole
I left home
Trying to find someday
I am looking like sunday
I'm walking
Find a place we can hide
Step aside for a while
I just want to disappear
Just want to run away
The highway
Under my sole
Run away
Trying to find someday
I am looking like sunday
I'm walking
Find a place we can hide
Step aside for a while
I just want to disappear
Just want to run away
Find a place we can hide
Step aside for a while
I just want to disappear
Wake up lonely, feeling sorry,
You're moving further every day.
You're always running away from something,
Your problems will catch up to you
No matter how far you run away.
'Cuz what you need to do
Is everything that I can show to you.
It's what you need right now,
I'll show you how...
'Cuz what you need is someone,
someone who understands you like I do.
Believe me please, you can turn to me.
I can tell you I know what you're going through.
You gave up trying, you're always crying.
You're always feeling down.
Just always know you're not alone.
When the world has turned its back on you,
know that I'll still be around.
'Cuz what you need is someone,
someone who understands you like I do.
Believe me please, you can turn to me.
I can tell you I know what you're going through.
'Cuz what you need to do
Is everything that I can show to you.
It's what you need right now,
I'll show you how...
'Cuz what you need is someone,
someone who understands you like I do.
Believe me please, you can turn to me.
I can tell you I know what you're going through.
'Cuz what you need is someone,
someone who understands you like I do.
Believe me please, you can turn to me.
I can tell you I know what you're going through.
'Cuz there's no problem too big
That we can't work it out.
'Cuz what we've got is too big
Yes I'm gonna mess around
Cause that's the way I want to be
Gonna try to get it down
Before I let it get to me
Don't want your love
Don't need it
That's the way I see it
* Oh runaway
You better not hesitate
Better hurry don't wait now
Runaway
Before you find it's too late
Cause you know how love slows you down
And if I should change my mind
If I should want to turn around
You know it won't be hard to find
Find another loving clown
It's best to think what of it
The change you will love it
* Repeat
No I'll never settle down
Cause I'm just not the settling kind
I got places all over town
As I walk along I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of the things we've done
Together, while our hearts were young
I'm a-walking in the rain
Tears are falling and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery, I wonder
I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder, why
Why-why-why-why-why
She ran away, and I wonder
Where she will stay
My little runaway
Lately I've been afraid
Something's going right inside of my brain
And it's getting hard to explain
But I see everything
I've been fighting all of my life
Always seem to put my heart on the line
And it's a lonely road I climb
When I see everything
And when I feel it coming
I run into the shadows
I'm trying to fake it
Fake it till I make it
People try and save me
I just wanna runaway
Runaway, runaway, runaway
I runaway
You see we're born with light in our hearts
And people come around and tear us apart
And when my whole world turns to dark
I can't see anything
I can't see anything
And when I feel it coming
I run into the shadows
I'm trying to fake it
Fake it till I make it
People try and save me
I just wanna runaway
Runaway, runaway, runaway
I want to fit inside a world
Where I could be queen of all the dark inside
So I would never have to see the light
And I would never have to run
I just wanna runaway
Runaway oh oh oh
Runaway
I just keep running
Runaway oh oh oh
I just wanna runaway
I just wanna run
Runaway, runaway
I just wanna, I just wanna
Runaway
I'm talking 'bout running away, from the world we share and we all live in, running, running away from pain again, from the past and towards youth.
Run - run away, run just to, run- run away, to lose you, run- run away, run just to have i made it crystal clear to you.
You're talking 'bout running away, from the world we share, and we all live in,
Run - run away, you have to, run- run away, I'll bruise you, run- run away you have to, stop pretending what we had was true.
My time my time yeah I said it's my time
Like Phil Collins said it tonight it's in the air right
Get ready for the hype, like it's Y2K night
I am so high, I'm so ready to take flight
This is my party, get yourself an invite
Man I go heavy on the beat I just aint light
Got a styrofoam, you know I pour the Screw right
Drop a bit a syrup mixed in with some damn sprite
Dude I am hungry on the beat like a great white
Man I am raping this shit like a run kites
If killing beats is wrong I don't ever wanna be right
Bitch I sees it with closed eyes in the night
Heartbreaker runs this shit, lovely
My girls be all 10s, yours, fugly
My girls be jumping cause they know that dick's coming
Any hot chick, I'm gon be fucking something
I'm rapper rock star I got myself a guitar
But I can't play that motherfucker I know that shit is bizarre
Yeah I'm stupid on the beat yeah I'm a retard
Tom Brady throw, I'm ready to go real far
You bitches do stars, oops I meant you do stare
Cause when I walk into a club for other guys it aint fair
Your girl be looking good, she cheats on you while you stare
If that's your wife well I guess it is an affair
Kanye did his thing on this, and Pusha did his thing on this
But Wem is checking in just to kill this beat and burry it
So I'm here with a shovel let me throw some dirt on it
No guilt I stay legit, bananas I go super split
Got myself a model bitch, she knows that I just wont commit
Gave her dick and left and then she threw a fucking hissy fit
But I caught that shit cause I was born with a catcher's mitt
Threw it in her face so that she knows that I don't ever quit
Now that bitch be cumming quick, dick her mouth she coughing spit
I just fucked this beat oh my god it's like I gave it dick
Call me a dog, but where is my bitch
And I be nailing this beat like it's got an inch
Your girl is open so, get her a stich
And I get any girl, call me hitch
No apologies, the game should honor me
I fed it her, do you Roger me
After I fuck you girl, don't bother me
Even when I leave, they are after me
Yeah I'm a runaway, legs like a centipede
Heartbreaker people, who's better than we
To do better than us, well you tried
I don't trust anything that bleeds and don't die
And I'm a superhuman more like a superhero
Even if I was the villain you would still be the zero
And it's a shame how I don't look like they typical
Rapper, so I'm opened to be ridiculed
Trust me if you knocked over what I built
I would just do it again because you know I don't quit
I do me man and I go about the finish line
Instinct is to sprint but it's still a step at a time
Can't forget what my mom said when I was nine
Running through the night
And it drives me down
I decide to take control in your mind
Waiting for the start
I swear to reach your heart
The master of your freedom and your pride
I will take you away my love
And you see your salvation around you
Running for light, right out of
Will you have me inside you, I love you
Runaway - Is the only way
Runaway - You can stay
Running through the night
I can bring you the light
I decide to take control in your mind
For you I will fight
And die upon your side
Give me your soul
Well, I waited long time sweatin' it, gettin' jerked but yea I'm gettin' it
Early mornin, stiff as dawn and 'em, cuz a brother give the mornin off
And then we doin' in, paranoid to new swearin'
I said meet me in the lobby skip, so one could cut down on the cherry tip
Alright, he flyin' scat, to being fair to show a mighty that
La Di Da Di wanted Gotti and although depended on the body and
Who I know was gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know she's gonna be wit him, so hallelujah, praise God King
Checked it out, even candle light I figured out
Better handle it my nigga, in
I think the best thing is to block her out
'Cause she doesn't give a fuck about
So much change and true it in, you would of cared to wish the union
She's not a phony, turn the Sony off, you better overcome the lonely of
Although a brother lettin' that, thus don't know where I'm headin' at
To see, even though we fought of it by bother just the very thought of it
When I know she's gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know she's gonna be wit him, so hallelujah, praise God King
And I know you're gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know you gonna be wit him, can't believe that this is happenin'
Well, I should say fine and phone wit coin
But though you say that I'm the only one
What, behind my back thinkin' of, or father not the one I'm thinkin' of
On this stress, and when it's gonna end down
Wit this burden here I'm wonderin'
I know I should say fine fed it, yeah and think about all the girls ahead of ya
Though hard for me to just forget he and try to follow to the letter end
Although the terrible things we riff about or follow wise that I can live it out
When I know you're gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know you gonna be wit him, so Hallelujah, praise God King
When I know you're gonna runaway, am I to live to serve the next day
When I know you gonna be wit him, can't believe this is happenin'
I know you're gonna runaway, I know you're gonna be wit him
Seems I know you're gonna runaway, I know you're gonna be wit him
The more I get to know you
The less I understand
A fascinating side effect of plans
The temptation to call you
I will be overcome
I've been down that road and I've never won
The hardest part's not knowing
Who you'll be today
I won't give my love
Just so you can runaway
I wish I could believe you
That you've learned who you are
The self-defense of thick skin made of scars
But the temptation to trust you
I will be overcome
I've been down that road and I've never won
The hardest part's not knowing
Who you'll be today
I won't give my love
I don't believe in all the words that I read.
I've been stuck between the lines.
Life in the middle is never what it could be.
Empty faces mirror mine.
So come with me we'll drive straight through the night.
We'll leave this world behind baby.
Turn up my song is on the radio.
Innuendos go anywhere you wanna go.
Hit the window and feel the summer wind blow.
Everything will be alright.
Runaway with me tonight.
I don't believe in all the rumors I hear.
They'll tear your world apart.
Tracing circles doesn't bring us any closer.
Is this not an inquisition baby
You're not the first I've told
That I'm gonna wake up lonely someday
And I'm gonna wake up old
You took me higher and higher and higher
But then that was a while ago
And I got a restless feeling baby
So I think it's best you know
Oh I could have done the righteous thing
But we're all gonna die someday
I'm not gonna look you in the eye
And tell you it's all okay
Runaway
It's okay
Runaway
It's okay
Now I got a new position
And it's difficult to address
There ain't no easy way of saying
That I'm getting it off my chest
You took me higher and higher and higher
So I'm sorry to be so low
But I got a restless feeling baby
And I think it's best I go
Oh I could have done the righteous thing
But we're all gonna die someday
And maybe I lack discretion darling
But I don't know what to say
Runaway
It's okay
Runaway
It's okay
Oh I could have broke your heart I guess
But what else could I have done?
And I'm looking after number one now
Baby I gotta, baby I gotta, baby I gotta run
Runaway
It's okay
Runaway
And I am hollow as she beckons me
A million years its has taken me
The words that are escaping out my mouth
She can't find the words to say
In a moment she can't take
And her wings won't spread to let her fly south
Runaway, she's a runaway
And all the roads less traveled on
Are sorched with footprints laid upon
With bare feet and virgin eyes
The independence that she fakes
Is the dream she has to face
And its easy to believe in your own lies
Runaway, she's a runaway
And soon she will wake up
And take off her makeup
Its been so long since she's seen her skin
And the scars show from the places she's been
Runaway, she's a runaway
She's a runaway
Runaway
And I am hollow as she beckons me
A million years its taken me
The words that are escaping out my mouth
She can't find the words to say
In a moment she can't take
And her wings won't spread to let her fly south
Runaway, she's a runaway
Runaway
Runaway
Neon lights, line the clouds that haunt your dreams
All alone, steppin' out onto the streets
Mother's call, baby's gone and can't be found
Comes the night, that's the time it hurts the most
Oh, Runaway... you can't hide from the night
Runaway, everybody wants to fight your love
Memories, of a family somewhere crying
Carry on, while inside emotions dying
Children lost, fantasies of days gone by
Runaway, where's the love you want to find
Runaway... memories have grown so cold
what do you see
when you look passed smoke and mirrors
a broken mist that you kept hidden from view
but that's just surfaced
look what s beneath
hope is rising
CHORUS
Runaway not today
Fear is sure to come along insecurities must go
Runaway not today
Face my fears and take a chance
like a parasite i hold
Whatever hand that i hold
now i must grow up
and take my place
inside this maze
will courage show up
completely blinded
love is now seen
it's been missing
(CHORUS)
I'm so tired of waiting
wondering why
will i stay
will i go
will i try
Did you cry when they dragged you home
Put a lock on the door and the telephone
Was a runaway girl all they could see?...
Have the nights and the days that you've come through
Made the right seem wrong and the false seem true
And was a runaway girl all they could see...
A teenage extra from the satellite TV
Runaway girl
Too bad Too bad
Runaway girl
Too wild Too wild
Were they deaf to the prayer behind your lies
Maybe they didn't care to ask you why
Was a runaway girl all they choose to see
All they were prepared to admit to
Runaway girl
Too bad Too bad
Runaway girl
Real wild child
So you cower in the towns forgotten places
And make your bed with unfamiliar faces
And at last you've got your freedom but that's all you've got
You're tryin' to make up your mind up if you're better off
You pretend to wait for washing in some laundromat
But you're damned if you'll give them the satisfaction of you going
back
You'd freeze before you'd share a roof with them
And you'd starve before you'd let him get his hands on you again
Did you cry when they dragged you home?
Well back before Sally left her home.
She helped her daddy work the farm.
She spent her days and nights just bored out of her mind.
It was the eye of the storm.
Little Sally was a runaway ran away from wasted youth she had a '57 Chevrolet.
And a hunger for the truth.
Well man when you don't know what you need.
You'll take whatever you can get.
Sally was the type who wanted everything.
But ended up with nothin' left.
Little Sally was a rebel.
You know she drove her car to fast.

Oh no wanna know wanna know wanna know
Desperation block
Oh no gotta know gotta know gotta know
It hit me like a rock rock rock rock rock
Middle8
What are you doing to me
Gutter trickle, bombast
A gunpowder wind
Wanna' let it all sink in
Like a rain collecting
I held on to you
Even when you begged me not to
Can't ya see I'm all bound up
A million knots down in my gut
Well I feel I've had enough, enough
I just wanna' run away
Run, run away
Run, run away
Run, run away
And I can make it happen
I'm magic and all
See me conjuring my downfall
Oh the gates are closin' in
Swallowin' the key
How am I to know you love me
Love me
Can't ya see I'm all bound up
A million knots down in my gut
Well I feel I've had enough, enough
I just wanna' run away
Run, run away yea
Run, run away
Kill the pain
Kill the shame
Wanna' feel nothin' at all
Run, run away
Run, run away
Run, run away
I've done this to myself.
History is severed.
My path is unclear now.
Where do I go from here?
Born in the dark, I lived in fear.
I've never felt freedom like this before.
There is no running from the truth.
Reinventing false creations.
Impossible to progress.
Finding no comfort in my happiness,
I am walking on an endless road.
Looking for a false god.
No one is here for me.
Home will never be the same.
Even from a thousand miles away
I hear the sounds
Feelin’ like the cold September rain
I’m feelin’ down
Need something to keep from goin’ insane
From losing ground
Wish I could runaway ‘til all this has gone away
Wake on a better day
I’m feeling like an old guitar that’s been thrown away
Sleep all the wrong away every night
‘Til the worst is over
Well I know that somewhere there’s a change
That’s meant for me
And I’m getting tired of the saying
It’s meant to be
Telling me I just got to believe
And you will see
Wish I could runaway ‘til all this has gone away
Wake on a better day
I’m feeling like an old guitar that’s been thrown away
Sleep all the wrong away every night
‘Til the worst is over
You ever feel that you want vacation
Ever feel that you wanna go
Do you feel like you’ve lost your patience
‘Cause where you’re headed no one knows
Wish I could runaway ‘til all this has gone away
Wake on a better day
I’m feeling like an old guitar that’s been thrown away
Sleep all the wrong away every night
‘Til the worst is over
There's no saving anything
Now we're swallowing the shine of the summer
There's no saving anything
How we swallow the sun
But I won't be no runaway
Cause I won't run
No I wont be no runaway
What makes you think I'm enjoying being led to the
flood?
We got another thing coming undone
And its taking us over
We don't bleed when we don't fight
Go ahead, go ahead
Throw your arms in the air tonight
We don't bleed when we don't fight
Go ahead, go ahead
Lose our shirts in the fire tonight
What makes you think I'm enjoying being led to the
flood?
We got another thing coming undone
But I won't be no runaway
Cause i wont run
No I won't be no runaway
Cause I won't run
No I won't be no runaway
But what makes you think im enjoying being led to the
flood?
We got another thing coming undone
And its taking us over
We don't bleed when we dont fight
Go ahead, go ahead
Throw your arms in the air tonight
We don't bleed when we don't fight
Go ahead, go ahead
Lose our shirts in the fire tonight
What makes you think I'm enjoying being led to the
flood?
We got another thing coming undone
We got another thing coming undone
And it's taking forever
I'll go braving everything
With you swallowing the shine of the summer
I'll go braving everything
Through the shine of the sun
But I won't be no runaway
Cause I won't run
No I won't be no runaway
Cause I won't run
No I won't be no runaway
What makes you think im enjoying being led to the
flood?
We got another thing coming undone
And its taking us over
We dont bleed and we dont fight
Go ahead, go ahead
Throw your arms in the air tonight
We dont bleed when we dont fight
Go ahead, go ahead
Lose our shirts in the fire tonight
What makes you think I'm enjoying being led to the
flood?
We got another thing coming undone
We got another thing coming undone
And its taking us over
Who'll make his mark
The Captain cried
To the Devil drink a toast
We'll glut the hold
With cups of gold
And we'll feed the sea with ghosts
I see your hunger for a fortune
Could be better
Served beneath my flag
If you've the stomach
For a broadside
Come aboard my pretty boys
I will take you and make you
Everything you've ever dreamed
Make fast the guns tonight we sail
When the high tide floods the bay
Cut free the lines
And square the yards
Get the black flag stowed away
The Turk the Arab and the Spaniard
Will soon have pennies on their eyes
And any other laden fancy
We will take her by surprise
I will take you and make you
Everything you've ever dreamed
Six days off the Cuban coast
When a sail ahead they spied
A Galleon of the treasure fleet
The mizzen lookout cried
Closer to the wind my boys
The mad eyed Captain roared
For every man that's alive tonight
Will be hauling gold aboard
Spare us the galleon begged
But mercy's face had fled
Blood ran from the screaming souls
The cutlass harvested
Driven to the quarter deck
The last survivor fell
She's ours my boys
The Captain grinned
And no one left to tell
The Captain rose from a silk divan
With a pistol in his fist
And shot the lock from an iron box
And a blood red ruby kissed
I give you jewelry of turquoise
A crucifix of solid gold
One hundred thousand silver pieces
It is just as I foretold
You, you see there before you
Everything you've ever dreamed
Anchored in an indigo moonlit bay
Gold eyed 'round fires
The sea thieves lay
Morning, white shells
And a pipe of clay
As the wind filled their footprints
They were far, far away
Our sails swell full
As we brave all seas
On a westward wind
To live as we please
With the wicked wild eyed woman
Of portobello town
Where we've been told
That a purse of gold
Buys any man a crown
They will serve you and cloth you
Exchange your rags
For the velvet coats of kings
Who'll drink a toast with me
I give you liberty
This town is ours - tonight
Landlord wine
And make it the finest
Make it a cup for a sea dogs thirst
Two long years of bones and beaches
Fever and leaches did their worst
So fill the night with paradise
Bring me peach and peacock
'Till I burst
But first, I want a soft touch
In the right place
I want to feel like a king tonight
Ten on the black
To beat the Frenchman
Back you dogs
Give them room to turn
Now open wide sweet Heavens gate
Tonight were gonna
See if Heaven burns
I want an angel on a gold chain
And I'll ride her to the stars
It's the last time
For a long, long time
Come the daybreak we embark
On the flood of the morning tide
Once more the ocean cried
This company will return one day
Though we feel your tears
It's the price we pay
For there's prizes to be taken
And glory to be found
Cut free the chains
Make fast your souls
We are eldorado bound
I will take you
For always, forever, together
Until Hell calls our names
Who'll drink a toast with me
To the Devil and the deep blue sea
Last scene
Downtown Seattle
Nineteen
Runaway child
Floating over
A lifetime of hurting
Searching to make it all right
Its easy
All she wants is to know
A love that wont go
Pure as the midnight
Snow falling
Downtown in Jackson
She had to move on
The baby was due
And she needed
A magical moment
To wash away
Her last memories
Its easy
All she wants is to know
A love that wont go
A feeling Ive always known
Last seen
High in the desert
She joined a clan
Of mystical wanna-bes
But light shined
And the Seer was seen
So she closed her eyes
And dived back in a dream
Its easy
All she wants is to know
A love that wont go
She was the last one to know
But she dont let it show
1st Verse
Forgive me I'm sorry,
But I really can't stay now I gotta leave.
I go to bed, full of pain,
Closed eyes, sunrise and I feel the same.
Everybody touched me, No you never helped me.
Always seemed to look the other way.
Made me a slave, been waiting for that day,
That I can finally get away.
CHORUS (Twice)
Right now might be the only time
If I'm really gonna make my move.
Dip out the back door
But I still don't know what to do.
Back up the stairs back into my bed,
Looks like a summer day,
I think I'm gonna run away, run away,
Run away from you.
2nd Verse
Gotta runaway, Gotta get away,
Gotta runaway, gotta get away.
No where to go is how I feel.
Don't even act surprise cause you know the deal.
You know it's real, It's not a game.
And Imma air it all out cause I'm not ashamed.
Everybody touched me, did you ever love me,
Always seemed to look the other way.
Made me a slave, been waiting for the day,
That I can finally get away.
REPEAT CHORUS (Twice)
I hate this life.
Run away, run away, run away now
(Repeat seven times)
REPEAT CHORUS (Twice)
And I always find, yeah, I always find something wrong
You been putting up with my shit just way too long
I'm so gifted at finding what I don't like the most
So I think it's time for us to have a toast
Let's have a toast for the douchebags
Let's have a toast for the assholes
Let's have a toast for the scumbags
Every one of them that I know
Let's have a toast for the jerk-offs
That'll never take work off
Baby, I got a plan
Runaway fast as you can
She find pictures in my email
I sent this bitch a picture of my dick
I don't know what it is with females
But I'm not too good at that shit
See, I could have me a good girl
And still be addicted to them hood rats
And I just blame everything on you
At least you know that's what I'm good at
And I always find, yeah, I always find, yeah, I always find something wrong
You been putting up with my shit just way too long
I'm so gifted at finding what I don't like the most
So I think it's time for us to have a toast
Let's have a toast for the douchebags
Let's have a toast for the assholes
Let's have a toast for the scumbags
Every one of them that I know
Let's have a toast for the jerk-offs
That'll never take work off
Baby, I got a plan
Runaway fast as you can
Runaway from me, baby
Runaway, runaway from me, baby
Runaway I'm about to get crazy, then runaway
Use the thug plan, runaway as fast as you can
Runaway from me, baby
Runaway, runaway from me, baby
Runaway, I'm about to get crazy
Why can't she just runaway?
Baby I got a plan, runaway as fast as you can
24/7, 365, pussy stays on my mind
I-I-I did it, alright, alright, I admit it
Now pick your next move
You could leave or live with it
Ichabod Crane with that motherfucking top off
Split and go where? Back to wearing knockoffs, ha, ha
Knock it off, Neiman's, shop it off
Let's talk over Mai Tai's, waitress, top it off
Ho's like vultures, wanna fly in your Freddy loafers
You can't blame 'em, they ain't never seen Versace sofas
Every bag, every blouse, every bracelet
Comes with a price tag, baby, face it
You should leave if you can't accept the basics
Plenty ho's in the baller-nigger matrix
Invisibly set, the Rolex is faceless
I'm just young, rich and tasteless, P
Never was much of a romantic
I could never take the intimacy
And I know it did damage
'Cause the look in your eyes is killing me
I guess you knew another vantage
'Cause you could blame me for everything
And I don't know how I'ma manage
If one day you just up and leave
And I always find, yeah, I always find something wrong
You been putting up with my shit just way too long
I'm so gifted at finding what I don't like the most
So I think it's time for us to have a toast
Let's have a toast for the douchebags
Let's have a toast for the assholes
Let's have a toast for the scumbags
Every one of them that I know
Let's have a toast for the jerk-offs
That'll never take work off
Baby, I got a plan
I've been down, I've been hurt
I've been lost, I've been weak
My emotions have been out of reach
When I thought everything was okey
I was wrong I have to runaway
Bye bye baby, goodbye
I'm gonna run run runaway
Follow my heart
I'm gonna run run runaway
A brand new start
I can feel for the first time
I'm gonna run run runaway
(Mm, hoo)
I can love, I can feel
I can breath, I can see
So alive I've never felt so free
I am stronger than ever before
Now I'm gone so you can close the door
Bye bye baby, goodbye
I'm gonna run run runaway
Follow my heart
I'm gonna run run runaway
A brand new start
I can feel for the first time
I'm gonna run run runaway
I'm gonna run run runaway
Follow my heart
I'm gonna run run runaway
A brand new start
I can feel for the first time
I'm gonna run run runaway
It doesn't matter where life will take me
I'm going with the flow higher than higher
It doesn't matter if luck will forsake me
I'm gonna runaway
I'm gonna runaway
Run run runaway
Follow my heart
I'm gonna run run runaway
A brand new start
I can feel for the first time
I'm gonna run run runaway
I'm gonna run run runaway
Follow my heart
I'm gonna run run runaway
A brand new start
I can feel for the first time
I'm gonna run run runaway
I can feel for the first time
You've been lying
Since the beginning
You're cursed, you're mad
Now I know better...
I won't listen
You just want to steal my life
I'll runaway from you
And to the light, I will come
Runaway from you
And from your lies I won't be blind
I was made for a purpose
I won't let you take that from me
Coz I have a destiny
I'll live for his glory
I'll runaway from you
And to the light, I will come
Runaway from you
And from your lies I won't be blind
You always want me to fall
Accusing me of all my flaws
But my guilt was taken away
By this man on the cross
I'll runaway from you
And to the light, I will come
Runaway from you
And from your lies I won't be blind
I'll runaway from you
And through his light I will shine
Runaway from you
And from your lies
I won't be blind
Wicked hearts
Where the violence starts
Caused all the death
That i've seen so far since
Eden we've been cursed
And i know that i'm the worst
Every thought in my mind is evil
And i hate all other people
There's no good in us at all
And i don't think we're able
Whatever happened to my generation?
It all went to Hell
We stood as a nation
But a nation of lies where everyone dies
We fight amongst ourselves
Brother against brother we kill one another
As men we're born to trouble yet
I stand without fear in the name of Christ
Cause they tell me to
Runaway come back and fight another day
Runaway runaway come back and fight another day
Deny my God and shut my mouth
Curse my Lord and end my life
Well how can i forget my King
The One who's given me everything
What a world we live in nothing prospers here
But division and the endless cries
For freedom well thet say we're free but this ain't freedom
Our souls are bound forever
There's no where left to run to
We try to stand together but
Even then we stand alone
Whatever happened to my generation?
It all went to Hell
We stood as a nation
But a nation of lies where everyone dies
My eyes have seen the glory of
The coming of our Lord
Who's trampling out the vintage where those grapes of wrath are stored
The battles won
The victory's ours
In the name of the King
But it's clear to me
That my people have been blinded
To the truth
But they tell me to
Runaway runaway come back and fight another day
Runaway runaway come back and fight another day
Runaway runaway come back and fight another day
Runaway runaway come back and fight another day
No we're not running
With Jehovah's strength we're standing strong
No we're not running
I thought I had been every place a man could be,
'till I met a lady who brought me to my knees.
The day I stop loving is the day that I die,
But now I'm running from her game 'cause the lady is a lie.
I've got a choice
Run away or be torn to shreds.
I've got a life and I want to live
Don't want to be dead.
I met her down in the underground,
Got a taste of the low life, just creepin' around.
I got what I came for and more, that's for sure,
'cause now I'm running from her game, can't take any more.
I've got a choice
Run away or be torn to shreds.
I've got a life and I want to live
Don't want to be dead.
When I first met you, baby,
I knew you could come on strong.
But when you held a knife to me,
You know, that just ain't too friendly.
I've heard of liberated,
But that's so understated.
I should have listened to them
When they told me you were crazy
It's not what you have dealin' it's what you're doing now
It's not where you have been it's where you're goin' now
Not so everywhere I go I hold you down that's why everywhere I go you know it's goin' down (it's goin' down)
Now, yeah, I am still a little monsta, still a swollen member rip it up at every concert
Lost a few years & we lost a couple sponsors but now I want it all & I am back to fucking conquer so (I've come to take what's mine, naw, we've come to take what's ours)
Look I became a serpent lyin' perfectly flat poppin' perkisets 'til everything went purple & black
I was lyin' on the dirt with the shirt on my back got up & wiped myself off & now I'm circling back
Here I come, now my boys are surviving spreading through the internet like poisonous ivy
Or a virus, or a forest fire, call me "Cyrus" the battleaxe warrior
I was ship wreck for a quick sec, I felt like Tom Hanks with a volleyball (Ha ha ha ha)
Fish clemp so tight I got white knuckles I been killin' it since B-boy belt buckles
Whole school o' some popeye eating spinach fights roll up in an MC & suit & pair of british Nykes
They drank Cristal I drank a dolla pop I'm the type to stay & fight 'til someone fall or drops
They look like the type to run away & call the cops such a shit half rat, half lollipop
It's not what you have dealin' it's what you're doing now
It's not where you have been it's where you're goin' now
Not so everywhere I go I hold you down that's why everywhere I go you know it's goin' down (So tough!)
Bipolar manic depressent that's my reality gifted nautiousness with an addictive personality
Mortifying, fortified, bonified champion war supply oversized more than gargantuan
(Yeah... Run!)
I'm a new ablagawda about to massacre azlada 'cuz I'm here to rock the planet like african bambada
& I've been waitin' for the right moment to strike while I'm holding the mic, 'cuz I'm a soldier that fights
commeditated systematic attacks the assassin from the vaticans back, spittin' radical facts
Most rappers spit theatrical crap for me to move ahead I had to go back
Now I explode on a track, the larger picture still alludes you, from swollen members we are not here to confuse you
So fuck all of the smoken mirrors it's the spiderman the silver surfer man I hope you hear us
Cruise livor, but two divers like a pink mohawk into new sideburns
I refuse to me ol' broken haggard so I rebuild my face under this cloaking dagger
When they tell my story let 'em say that I walk with giants this isn't rap it's textbook math & science
I spot a kiss when it come down to the art of this A martyr with the other murderers they want no part of this
You fuckin' started it, I'll fucking finish it, this is my business & I won't leave no witnesses
It's not what you have dealin' it's what you're doing now
It's not where you have been it's where you're goin' now
Freedom gave
You too much time to go and misbehave
You are no longer anybody’s slave
You’re free young runaway
You got them holey feet
Two pin cushions, you think you're. so discreet
You’re sick of sticking with the alley creeps
Now you’re sticking with me
You say you're broken down
Beg me to help you out
Heart like a megaphone
I ain’t your telephone
Why don’t you go on home
Why don’t you go on home
Why don’t you go on home
The truth is I'm a runaway
I'm running from the modern day
The truth is that your paradise
Ain’t my paradise
Your eyes I love
But I don’t think they shine enough
I really wish that they would lighten up
Instead of looking all fussed
Beg me to break it down
You got a nervous sound
Heart like a megaphone
You’re scared to be alone
Why don't you go on home
Run back to your mother
She will save you
She will be your lover
No more misbehavior
And I’ll be your savior
Run back to your mother
She will save you
She will be your lover
No more misbehavior
I will be your savior
She plays it so dramatic, a silhouette of soul
It's automatic, he won't ever let go
She wants a tender lover, a clean and honest man
Why she keeps on running, I just don't understand
Chorus:
Runaway, why do you run away, come on stay, just stay tonight
Runaway, you're just a runaway, come on stay, it'll be alright
In between the faces and on the out-of-bounds
They could find the places no one else could have found
Now she's in expectation and he's in search of truth
A simple soul equation, one and one heart is two
(chorus)
Now she's walking down a fine line, she told him what would happen next time
She's gonna run away
(Solo)
Runaway, why do you run away, come on stay, just stay with me tonight
Runaway, why do you run away, oh stay one more night
Runaway, come on stay, just stay with me tonight
Runaway, come on stay, it'll be alright
Runaway, you gotta stay, just stay one more night
As I walk along I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of the things we've done
Together, while our hearts were young
I'm a-walking in the rain
Tears are falling and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery, I wonder
I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder, why
Why-why-why-why-why
She ran away, and I wonder
Where she will stay
My little runaway
A-run-run-run-run-runaway
You don't have to promise to call me
I know you won't
I know you well little darling
you're always on the move
It isn't the first time you're missing
Cause you're here and there and everywhere
Little darling tell me if you go
Run away but come back
You can't leave me now
Running may seem easy
I don't wanna lose you, confuse you
It's in the stars the road is waiting before you
And I know you will take your chances
Nothing is sacred, believe me
The time is now your destination is certain
As long as you're fearless
Run away but come back
You can't leave me now
Running may seem easy
All you should know I'll be with you
where ever you go
Packed her bags, bought a ticket for the subway
Giving up on life, now she's gonna run away
Get out of here, somehow
She threw away everything, that she never had
Didn't think it'd come to this, but now she finally has..
To face the truth, somehow
To finally figure out
What they've been talking about
CHORUS
She's the runaway
She tried to hide from her mistakes
That lonely girl
Out on her own
She'll leave today
No matter what they have to say
She'll find a way
She knows
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
She doesn't really care, if they're gonna chase her
They're gonna have to realize, she gets what she deserves
She's better off alone, she thinks
She's gonna learn to fly, despite her broken wings
She's gonna live her life, on the sad song she sings
About something more, she dreams
She's got to figure out
What she is all about
chorus
She can't get out of this dim light
She never seemed to shine that bright
And this sad truth she calls her life
It's not alright, it's not alright
She doesn't care just what they have to say
She's gonna make or break her way she knows
No matter what, no matter what they say
She's home
I am a runaway
Many of my kind run away
Running away from their way
All on a rainy day
Hitching along the King's Highway
Running away from their way
Sailing into candor
With a pile of gold
And the hermit's guiding me
Very, very wise and old
I will see my true love there
She'll be pleased to see me
The city soon'll see my sail
They'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
Here I am on my way
Hitching along the Queen's Highway
Running away from their way
All on a winter's day
Hitching along the King's Highway
Running away from their way
Sailing into candor
With a pile of gold
And the hermit's guiding me
Very, very wise and old
I will see my true love there
She'll be pleased to see me
The city soon'll see my sail
They'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
Sailing into candor
With a pile of gold
And the hermit's guiding me
And he's very, very wise and old
I will see my true love there
She'll be pleased to see me
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know I'm home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
The city soon'll see my sail
And they'll know that I am home
The way your making me feel
This just cant be for real(yeah,real,yeah)
My mind is sickened and ill,
Atleast Im standing here still(yeah,Im here,yeah)
I just want you to see,what Ive been going through,
Open your eyes and breathe,
what you been going through?
Dont tempt me with you, Ill run away with you.
And when the darkness has fallen(over you and I)
You may not see it coming(over you and I)
Bleeding the skies, they are falling(over you and I)
Can you feel my heartbeat?For you,for you.
Is there anything that, that I can do?
This is everlasting, my mind, is on you.
So your lost forever.Its done, and Im through.
I just want you to see, what Ive been going through
Open your eyes and breathe.
What you been going through?
[Intro:]
Run run
Run run
Just wanna run away
Run run
Just wanna run
Run run
[Verse 1:]
Babe give me a little space to breathe
Can't you see you're smotherin' me
You're like a leopard in a tree
You're watchin' me, you're stalkin' me
Fear is a plague growin' through your vains
Don't you infect me and make me feel the same
I'm going numb from all the change
[Chorus:]
Release me [x3]
Just release me
Hold on these walls are closing in on me I'm claustrophobic (Hold on)
It's only insecurities girl and you know it (hold on)
I need to tell you that girl you're just so (hold on [x2])
Sometimes I just wanna run away
Sometimes I, I just wanna run [x4]
[Verse 2:]
Babe can I have just one day in peace
Your constant naggin is killin' me
You're like a record on repeat [x3]
Your paranoia makes me I'll
It's a disease that slowly kills
Been here before but you do it still
[Chorus:]
Release me [x2]
Just release me
Hold on these walls are closing in on me I'm claustrophobic (Hold on)
It's only insecurities girl and you know it (hold on)
I need to tell you that girl you're just so (hold on [x2])
Sometimes I just wanna run away
Sometimes I, I just wanna run [x8]
[Chorus:]
Baby hold on
Hold on these walls are closing in on me I'm claustrophobic (Hold on)
It's only insecurities girl and you know it (hold on)
I need to tell you that girl you're just so (hold on)
Girl you're just so (hold on)
Girl you're just so (hold on)
[Outro:]
Run, run (hold on)
Run, run (hold on)
Run, run (hold on)
I can't be where I am, I've gotta get away
Somewhere as far as I can from you
Somehow it is very clear
I'm getting bored very easily
Maybe somewhere else everybody will be more friendly
And I just wanna get away from everything I know
Runaway, as far as I can go
Runaway, runaway, runaway with my new man any day
Sneaking through them all, that's what it comes down to
No one is around in the morning, I can't help feeling so blue
I'm walking on down the sidewalk,I really know what it's like to be alone now,
But my heart starts beating out (loud?) when those kids drive by me in their car
And I just wanna get away from everything I know
Runaway, as far as I can go
Runaway, with my true love any day
Runaway,
runaway...I just wanna get away from everything I know
Runaway, as far as I can go
Runaway, runaway,
She stands alone again at night
The darkness calling her name
The light's on but there's nothing inside
She waits outside for someone to blame
She falls down on her knees
And she cries
She doesn't wanna be alone again
And the streets keep calling her name
She only has to reach out and then
She could write the rules of the game
If she could only stop the hands of time
She could changeher whole damn life
She would find a paradise
To runaway
She fells a breeze and opens her eyes
She wakes up in a white bed
By the beach there's a change in the tides
Love gave her life instead
She looks up to the sky
She knows why
She doesn't wanna be alone again
And the streets keep calling her name
She only has to reach out and then
She could write the rules of the game
If she could only stop the hands of time
She could changeher whole damn life
She would find a paradise
To runaway
They always told her
That this was all she could be
She once was blind
But then life taught her
How to see
She had to believe
She doesn't wanna be alone again
And the streets keep calling her name
She only has to reach out and then
She could write the rules of the game
If she could only stop the hands of time
She could changeher whole damn life
She would find a paradise
As I walk along I wonder
What went wrong with our love
A love so rare and strong
And as I walk along, I think of
The times we had together
While our hearts were young
I'm a walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery and I wonder
I wa wa wa wonder
Why, why why why why why she ran away
And I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway, a run run run run runaway
I'm a walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery and I wonder
I wa wa wa wonder
Why, why why why why why she ran away
And I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway, a run run run run runaway
A run run run run runaway
Sitting at the crossways
Trying to keep my cool with the traffic lights
I've been up and down this line so any times
Girl, it's never right
Me and this machine keep the crazy urban dream
Locked in overflow
Sometimes I swear I could spin these old wheels
Just let it go
Runaway
Is it something that you hear
Coming through the waves on the radio
Or something that you see gently taps your memory
And shoots you down
Those hometown thoughts, school yard dreams and yesterdays
Moving in I just put my head down and drift away
And we're moving up and down, in and out of town
We're all searching for that piece of higher ground
somewhere...
Runaway
On the outside, a beautiful thing
On the inside, a bird with a broken wing
Chances taken, now the dark angels circle in the wind
You're mistaken, but still you'll do it all again
As he shakes his fist, somethin' dribbles down his chin
Can you live like this
Just crawlin' underneath their skin
CHORUS:
Better run...runaway, there is no reason to stay
Run...runaway
Better run...runaway, fast as these words that I say
Run...runaway
From the ashes you will rise
Distant crashes in your eyes
Though he's made you into an image of his pain
Cut and shaved you
Like a prisoner on a train
There are broken limbs
And tangled power lines
No songs like hymns
No flowers in the springtime
CHORUS TWICE
I found your heart on Valentine's Day
I tore it apart, with all I do, with all I say
Just run....
Better run....runaway
There is no reason to stay
Run...runaway
You just run...runaway
Fast as these words that I say
Run...runaway
Better run....runaway
There is no reason to stay
Run...runaway
Better run...runaway
Fast as these words that I say
Run...runaway
I'm running away just for a moment
If I stay here I'll go insane
I cant stop looking at your pictures
they make Sunday morning feel like Monday
but without you I?m broken
when I was happy I could make you smile
but I'm not as happy as I used to be
I cannot stand the way I'm feeling
the radio sucks where's my hero?s today
Wahoo-ooo, I cannot resist your smile
but I'm leaving for a while (repeat)
without you I'm broken and you left me
(chorus)
I?m waiting for you now (repeat)
You push me out just to pull me back in
Nobody's going to tell me how to live
and I hear your talking shit when your with your friends
nobody's gonna tell you
You push me out just to pull me back in
nobody's gonna tell me how to live
I just want to hear you
Say you want me, Say you need me
tell me its in my head, its in my head
Say you want me, Say you need me
tell me its in my head and that I fine
(chorus)
Mama thought he had a condition
He barely acted his age
Papa chalked it off to ambition
When he took to the stage
A small town singer doesn't stand a chance
Hiding behind the same old scene
One or two parties and just a few dances
Not enough chances for me
Nobody here can understand
Your favorite son has other plans
Chorus:
Runaway, don't cry again
Kiss goodbye the ties that bind you
Runaway, and try again
Yesterday belongs behind you
Tomorrow takes you home
He tried to stay above the suspicions
But sometimes he gave it away
He knew enough to change his position
The time came to live in L.A.
A small town singer just can't get by
Hiding behind the same old scene
Nobody likes to say goodbye
But bye bye, the time has come for me
Nobody here can understand
Your favorite son has other plans
(Chorus)
Runaway
Kiss it all goodbye
Take another try
Tomorrow takes you home
It was a late dream
The world you made it steam
They put your heart on the stand
And every passerby watched your firefly
With nowhere to land
You rocked your words right
You let them sleep tight
Until love showed it's face
There was a light wind
You left your heart in him
It held your name back from grace
And you rock like you know
That the world needs a show
But you want somebody to love
Runaway, runaway 'cause it fits the fall
And we all know you didn't mean it at all
Runaway, runaway let your words recall
You're not alone, you wouldn't leave us at all
You watched the close calls, forshadowed broken laws
You put yourself on a stand
You let your guilt ride and found a place to hide
From love's high demand
You found the right pose
The kind a stranger knows
Your heart was up in the air
There was a strong wind, it brought to back to him
But you were too far to care
Now you're out for the sake of a heart you can brake
Because you want somebody to love
Runaway, runaway 'cause it fits the fall
And we all know you didn't mean it at all
Runaway, runaway let your words recall
You're not alone, you wouldn't leave us at all
When it feels right
You're free to leave
When it feels like
There's room to breathe
And it feels like you're letting go
You're letting go
Runaway, runaway 'cause it fits the fall
And we all know you didn't mean it at all
Runaway, runaway let your words recall
Say it's true, there's nothing like me and you,
I'm not alone, tell me you feel it too,
And I would runaway,
I would runaway, yeah, yeah,
I would runaway,
I would runaway with you,
Cause I have fallen in love,
With you, no never have,
I'm never gonna stop fallin' in love, with you,
Close the door, lay down upon the floor,
And by candlelight, candlelight make love to me through the night,
through the night, through the night,
'Cause I have runaway,
I have runaway, yeah, yeah,
I have runaway, runaway,
I have runaway with you,
'Cause I have fallen in love, fallen in love,
With you, no never oh, oh,
I'm never gonna stop fallin' in love, with you, With you,
And I would runaway,
I would runaway, yeah, yeah,
I would runaway, runaway,
I would runaway hey with you,
Cause I have, have fallen in love, fallen in love,
With you, no never oh, oh,
I'm never gonna stop fallin' in love, with you,
Fallen in love fallen in love
With you, no never have
I'm never gonna stop fallin' in love, with you
With you, my love,
With you, with you, with you, with you,
Fade Out
[Tech N9ne]
Yo, wassup baby?
How you been?
It's been a long time since I talked to you last
I got a question, you still with homeboy?
Y'know homeboy don't matter to me
I'm interested in you baby
We can creep
Y'know what I'm sizzlin'?
Just think about it baby, I'm tryin' to get with you for real
[Chorus] - 2x
Might be some fun to runaway
This game is one I wanna play
I'm done, he's gone and run astray
No fun, the sun has gone away
[Tech N9ne]
Wassup?
This ya boy Tech Nina
It's good to hear ya, but it's been a minute since I seen ya
Fox demeanor
Gots to dream ya
Cause you stay blocked and locked with hops between ya
I know you got a man
I know you got a little on the side
But I was thinkin if you down for creepin then we can slide
You's a hot one
And you look like you need a top notch one
Ya boy couldn't win it with Johnny Cochran
I know he with you when it's cool
But I'm still tryin to get you to cruise
That ill behind and your lips and your boobs
Come get with a fool
We can take any trip that you choose
Forget that your dude is waitin while you twistin in the nude with this
Boss villian ghetto true mafia
Feel you from here to Czechoslovakia
What's stoppin ya?
I need it and I don't think that I can deal without it
Strictly being real baby tell me what you feel about it
[Chorus] - 2x
Might be some fun to runaway
This game is one I wanna play
I'm done, he's gone and run astray
No fun, the sun has gone away
[Tech N9ne]
I know you got time with dude and I'm new
But I'mma true
and I'm tryin to get into you
I know he probably give you big love
But I don't trip cause
Dude's cool, I met him at the strip club
Ya he's good for you
He keeps you grounded
While I pound it
Soft and wet is how it sounded
Leave you astounded
From the tongue dancin around it
That's the angle
Search for an angel
and then I found it
Right between those eyes baby
I know it gets heated at home
But your homie Tech Nizzle can hear your cries baby
I know it's hell, I put out fires with this
Got him cussin on your pager and slittin tires and shit
You don't need that
You need positive feedback
Lift you're skirt up and throw you on the counter and eat that
L-E-G's back
Pull it out and I tease that
We release that
Have us a drink and repeat that
What you think?
[Chorus] - 2x
Might be some fun to runaway
This game is one I wanna play
I'm done, he's gone and run astray
No fun, the sun has gone away
[Tech N9ne]
Yo, yo, check
I need a hardcore chick who can chill
On the rap side
Love, money, and keep her scratch-tied
So when your homeboy don't act right
Just remember my face is a permanent sittin spot for your backside
I'm just tryin to kick it
Make up your mind you want N9ne to stick it
I'm diggin you because you fine and wicked
Don't want to miss it
I'm psycho sick wit it
Dig it
I slop you like a biscuit
and I'll hop ya like a cricket
This is a - decent proposal don't ever hate on it
When I see somethin I want baby I'm never late on it
You ain't gotta answer now you can merinate on it
But before I go I got to throw this serenade on it
It goes
When it rains and when it thunders
If he treat you like a cheap and he runaway from ya
You can call me on the under
When you need someone to run to just dial my number
[Chorus] - 2x
Might be some fun to runaway
This game is one I wanna play
I'm done, he's gone and run astray
No fun, the sun has gone away
[Tech N9ne]
So what you think baby?
You think you can do this?
You think you got the borders to do this with me? (Hehehe...)
You know you're thinkin about it
I know you're thinkin about it
I see how you look at me
You and me exchangin looks over his shoulder at the restaurant, remember that? (Heh)
Ya, I know you remember that
Just creep with me baby, it's cool
We can kick it, y'know what I'm sayin?
Sleepless tonight
The storm that's inside
Is falling right from your eyes
You've been here before
This three syllable war
is coming out your disguise
I watch you break I can't turn away
I tried to help but you always say,
Everything's fine I just need some time and then you'll realize
Give it up I'm not giving you the keys to my car
While your makeup is running and you're falling apart
You can take it out on me, you can give me a scar
Don't run away, eh, don't run away, eh, eh
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh...
Don't run away, eh, don't run away, eh, eh
You're starting to crack
Will I get your back
Or will I watch as you fall
Let's turn on the light,
we can try and rewrite
your curtain call
Give it up I'm not giving you the keys to my car
While your makeup is running and you're falling apart
You can take it out on me, you can give me a scar
Don't run away, eh, don't run away, eh, eh
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh...
Don't run away, eh, don't run away, eh, eh
I'll watch you break, I can't turn away
I tried to help but you always say, "Everything's fine
I just need some time," and then you'll realize
Sleepless tonight, the storm that's inside is falling right from your eyes
Give it up I'm not giving you the keys to my car
While your makeup is running and you're falling apart
You can take it out on me, you can give me a scar
Don't run away, eh, don't run away
Give it up I'm not giving you the keys to my car
While your makeup is running and you're falling apart
You can take it out on me, you can give me a scar
Don't run away, eh, don't run away, eh, eh
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh...
There goanna follow you through a dark alley
You creep and hide
You best be aware cause there find you in time
You can’t go far
Without them catching up to you
Here’s something you tell yourself when you got nothing left to do
There goanna hunt you down
Find you in the night
There going to get you baby when you aren’t out doing right
I can see it coming now
Is that far away train
Tie yourself to the tracks now who’s the one to blame
Runaway do that thing you do
Runaway weep and moan they get to you
You can’t runaway no no no!
Runaway from the blues
Head for the horizon
High from the morning light
You were never the type to try and put up a fight
Just hold on in the night
While it’s ripped down the seam
Just don’t close your eyes because maybe they will find you in your dreams
Runaway do that thing you do
Runaway weep and moan they get to you
You can’t runaway no no no!
Runaway from the blues
Spoken (I’m telling you babe no! )
Guitar solo
Got a bounty on your head
Run but you can’t hide
When it comes around lord it’s not goanna be denied
When the walls come crashing down
Oh your goanna fall
I wonder if your be so strong when the blues come to call
Runaway do that thing you do
Runaway weep and moan they get to you
You can’t runaway no no no!
Runaway from the blues
Runaway do that thing you do
Runaway weep and moan they get to you
You can’t runaway no no no!
Runaway from the blues
I said you can’t runaway no no no!
Runaway from the blues
Oh no can’t runaway babe
Runaway
Oh no no baby you can’t
You can’t runaway
There may come a time
When the days are short
And you'll feel it
Like it just ain't worth it all
And the sky is full
Of the winter gill
But there's something
Keeps you standing by her side
I know it's hard
But you can't turn away
Sometimes it's better
Just to look the other way
When you're all alone
In the dead of night
And you're wide awake
But you just can't find that light
And I can see you're at the bottom of the well
You're holding on
But then you can't uphold yourself
You've got to know that everything will be just fine
Forget that pretty babe
The sun is gonna shine
I know it's hard
But you can't runaway
Sometimes it's better
Just to turn the other way
Was there ever a time
When wrong was right
As you tried to hold on
To the things that you like
And I can't count the times
I felt sorry for you
Cause you're hollow inside
Like a black shade of blue
Without you
I feel lost in a world that was made of ice
Without you
I would live like a beggar in paradise
It's so true
And I'm telling you straight
I would never lie
So walk away with me
Walk away with me
On the street where you live
Girls talk about their social lives
They're made of lipstick, plastic and paint
A touch of sable in their eyes
All your life all you asked
When is your Daddy gonna talk to you
But we're living in another world
Tryin' to get your message through
No one heard a single word you said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going around your head
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway
A different line every night
Guaranteed to blow your mind
I see you out on the streets
Call me for a wild time
So you sit home alone
'Cause there's nothing left that you can do
There's only pictures hung in the shadows
Left there to look at you
You know she likes the lights
At night on the neon Broadway signs
And she don't really mind
It's only love she hoped to find
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway
No one heard a single word you said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going around your head
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
Now she wants a night away
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
Now she wants a night away
Runaway
Runaway
Wait a-wait and see
Well I've been waiting my whole life baby
For what's coming to me
Darlin' can't you see
That if you want my love then claim it
Or else let me be
[CHORUS]
I need you too much
[Background Singer:] (baby)
I was no match for you
So I gotta run run
(Runaway)
Can't take another lonely day
(Runaway)
Can't make it any other way
(Runaway)
You don't want me anymore
(Runaway)
Watch me walk right out the door
Hold on you said and you knew I would
You only talk like that you knew you could
Turn me all around can't tell up from down
You hide your heart from me never to be found
[CHORUS]
I need you too much
[Background Singer:] (baby)
I was no match for you
So I gotta run run
(Runaway)
Can't take another lonely day
(Runaway)
Can't make it any other way
(Runaway)
You don't want me anymore
(Runaway)
Watch me walk right out the door
(Runaway)
Can't take another lonely day
(Runaway)
Can't make it any other way
(Runaway)
You don't want me anymore
(Runaway)
Watch me walk right out the door
I hear people talk
I see people walk
They seem so out of touch
I wanna get away so much
All the clockwork toys
Are making too much noise
It's the machinery
It's breaking down O' can't you see
Run runaway with me
The picture doesn't change
It's just a frozen frame
I wanna break the ice
I wanna go to paradise
There is nowhere to hide
I'll take you for a ride
But not if you kiss and tell
I don't mean on a carousel
One day I'm
To say my
Three wishes come true
Till then I pretend I'm
Continuously Question
Where this road is leading to
This good vibe my intention
There's something I feel I need to do
Gotta run baby run baby run
Gotta run baby run baby run
Gotta run baby run baby run baby run
I wanna runaway
I wanna change my name oh
I wanna shead this skin
A new life to begin
The world is spinnin' faster
Feel like I´m caught in a hurricane
Underrating this disaster
And there's only myself to blame
Gotta run baby run baby run
Gotta run baby run baby run
Gotta run baby run baby run baby run
I wanna runaway
I wanna change my name oh
I wanna shed this skin
A new life to begin
I wanna runaway
I wanna change my name oh
I wanna shead this skin
A new life to begin
Gotta run baby run baby run
Gotta run baby run baby run
Gotta run baby run baby run baby run
I wanna runaway
I wanna runaway
I wanna take a chance and never come back again
I wanna get away
I wanna get away
I wanna leave this mess behind I wanna start again
I wanna run I wanna run I wanna runaway
I wanna run I wanna run I wanna runaway
Why are you so ungrateful/
You nuh see that Jah give we life after all/
Check yourself before you wreck yourself/
Me see that Jah Jah give we life after all/
Still none a dem nuh give no thanks at all/
Dem think dem a rise me see dem a fall/
Fall dem a fall - fall dem a fall/
Chorus:
How long you want to go run away/
Run away from yourself you nuh see that truth ago reveal/
And every day you got to pray - well that you fi go do/
And make your life one a the real/
How you fi expect love and you still a glorifie the gun/
How you want clarity if acoke you nuh stop bun/
Your dirty lifestyle nuh give you no way to turn/
You still nuh realize that you wrong/
After you come out of your church you beat your babymother down/
And then you tell her you're sorry but your head did full a rum/
She couldn't tek your excuse and your flattering tongue/
That's why she left you today and still a ask/
Chorus:
How long you want to go run away/
Run away from yourself you nuh see that truth ago reveal/
And every day you got to pray - well that you fi go do/
And make your life one a the real/
Dem say dem a the dolphin but me see dem a the shark/
Dem stand ina the spotlight and live in the dark/
Claim say dem grounded but me see dem a skylark/
So to me dem can't talk/
In this time and this ages man hafi be smart/
Think before you talk and watch the road wha' you a walk/
From you look ina your conscience you can't miss the mark/
And make a joyful sound unto the Lord/
Chorus:
How long you want to go run away/
Run away from yourself you nuh see that truth ago reveal/
And every day you got to pray - well that you fi go do/

Cleanheart always will make it/
And from you see a chance ina your life/
What am I supposed to do with this time?
It tears so many holes, I stay afloat but I'm
Feel out of control, so petrified
I'm petrified
What am I supposed to do to get by?
Did I lose everything I need to survive?
'Cause it's four am and the sweat sets in
Did you get my message, did it send?
Or did you just get on with your life?
I'm taking time to thinking I
Don't think it's fair for us to
Turn around and say goodbye
I have this feeling when I
Finally find the words to say
But I can't tell you if you turn around
And run away, run away
What am I supposed to do with these clothes?
It's my twisted way of keep you close
I'm a nervous wreck, I'm a broken man
Did you get my message, did it send?
Or do you get along on your own?
I'm taking time to thinking I
Don't think it's fair for us to
Turn around and say goodbye
I have this feeling when I
Finally find the words to say
But I can't tell you if you turn around
And run away, run away
And it breaks me down when I see your face
You look so different but you feel the same
And I do not understand, I cannot comprehend
The chills your body sends, why did it have to end?
I'm taking time to thinking I
Don't think it's fair for us to
Turn around and say goodbye
I have this feeling that I
Finally find the words to say
But I can't tell you if you turn around
And run away, run away
I'm taking time to thinking I
Don't think it's fair for us to
Turn around and say goodbye
And I have this feeling that I
Finally find the words to say
But I can't tell you if you turn around
And run away, run away
Runaway, runaway
Turn around and run away, run away
Runaway, runaway
But I can't tell you if you run away, run away
shades of grey all around
stay away from the coast, stay away
we’re stuck on a roof looking down
run away, run away, run away
this bike just stole my heart, love
but I’ll sell it if you please - I’ll sell it if you please
I’ve lost my heart before, love
but it was never like this - no never like this
diving to the depth of the sea
swim away from the light, swim away
waves of salt water deep
get away from the shore, get away
this bike just stole my heart, love
but I’ll sell it if you please - I’ll sell it if you please
I’ve lost my heart before, love
but it was never like this - no never like
hand me the right to be left in a swing
let the surface be build from the ground
selfish the gene that unfolds in the cell
You've got your heart set
On getting out
Before you fade
You'll try a different route
And you're in bed with
The caution signs
Attached to leaving
This place behind
So close your eyes
And count to ten
We'll be gone
When you open them
Why don't we run away
Why don't we leave today
If the world ends we'll be okay
So pack your bags girl
And runaway
You've got your big dreams
And tickets punched
The cameras rolling
Time for your close up
So cake on makeup
To hide the scars
Cause there's no heartache
Amongst the stars
So close your eyes
And count to ten
We'll be gone
When you open them
Why don't we run away
Why don't we leave today
If the world ends we'll be okay
So pack your bags girl
And runaway
Get out get out now
Pack up and leave this town
Got up on the wrong side of life today, yeah
Crashed the car and I'm gonna be really late
My phone doesn't work 'cause it's out of range
Looks like it's just one of those kind of days
You can't kick me down I'm already on the ground
No, you can't 'cause you couldn't catch me anyhow
Blue skies but the sun isn't coming out, no
Today it's like I'm under a heavy cloud
And I feel so alive
I can't help myself, don't you realize
I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
I just want to fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
So so's how I'm doing if you're wondering
I'm in a fight with the world but I'm winning
Stay there, come closer it's at your own risk
Yeah, you know how it is life can be a bitch
I feel so alive
I can't help myself, don't you realize
I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
I just want to fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
Runaway, runaway
Runaway, runaway
Runaway, runaway
Runaway, runaway
I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
I just want to fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
I just want to fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
Girl, I want to be good to you
I never want to do you no harm
I'm caught up in those fascination
Coping with your alarms
Ignore life if you want to, babe
Do what you've got to do
I need some time in the countryside
I want to feel so brand new
You make me run away
You make me run away
You make me run away, angel
You make me run away
Runaway
I see your name on the walls again
I painted you on my toes
Celebrate to resuscitate
We'll drink to ourselves
You'd collect lovers like gemstones
You talk of them as your friends
Dangle me from your wristchain
Another one lost to the wills of change
You make me run away
You make me run away
You make me run away, baby
You make me run away
Runaway
Still, I try to be good to you
You'll always be my friend
I've spent some time to define my mind
I want to be someone new
Why don't we run away?
Why don't we run away
Yeah, we can run away, angel
Yeah, we could run away
Why don't we run away?
You make me run away, baby
I want to run away
This place can blow my mind
But I come here every time
I little left of undefined
But running on alkaline
It looked good from far away
Could it be could it be could it be my life
I couldn't help but disobey
I felt like a runaway
Every reason not to stay
Its where the wild ones go
She's about to kill me
Yeah, pretty hard to overthrow
Not much that's left of me
Is this who I want to be
It looked good from far away
Could it be could it be could it be my life
Made it hard to disobey
I felt like a runaway
Every reason not to stay
Watching how they do it
Learning every move
Dressing up like elvis
But don't know how to groove
Well telling me about music
And just what I should do
But rats in mazes bats in cages don't make kitchen stew
As I walk alone
I wonder
What went wrong
with our love
Although it was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of
The things we've done together
While our hearts were young
I'm walking in the rain
To the born and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this miserie
And I wonder
I wa wa wa wa wonder
Wa wa wa wa
She run way
And I wonder
Where she will stay
My litttle runaway
Now, I'm walking in the rain
To the born and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this miserie
And I wonder
I wa wa wa wa
wonder
Wa wa wa wa
She run way
And I wonder
Where she will stay
My litttle runaway
Shoot out the lights
And then you said,
"We've stayed high
Too long here in the sky"
You shoot out the lights
I had to see the big star rising
There's nothing to fear
'cause nothing can bring us down
Now that we've made it here
Nothing to fear
Nothing but the big star rising
Work my fingers to the bone
So we could get this high
But we still can't fly
I feel like coming down
You're still, still hanging around
My feet back on the ground
So I can runaway
I wanna runaway
I feel like coming down
You're still, still hanging around
My feet back on the ground
So I can runaway
I wanna runaway
Nothing for free
My hands will reach up so high
to bring you down with me
Nothing for free
I wanna see the big star rising
I don't mind the heat
Not even your flames will burn
As long as I can see
I don't mind the heat
I had to see the big star rising
Work my fingers to the bone
So we could get this high
But we still can't fly
I feel like coming down
You're still, still hanging around
My feet back on the ground
So I can runaway
I wanna runaway
I feel like coming down
You're still, still hanging around
My feet back on the ground
So I can runaway
I wanna runaway
From London to Paris
From Berlin to Rome
You're searching for something
A place to call home
Been hiding your feelings
Went out of control
Your destinations unknown
Tell me
How can it be boy?
You're still a runaway
You chase the dreams from heaven above
Where in this world will you find a place to stay?
Runaway from love
How can it be boy?
You're still a runaway
You chase the dreams from heaven above, baby
Where in this world will you find a place to stay?
Runaway from love
Runaway from love (runaway)
A new town, a new place
A knock on the door
You came as a stranger and entered the door
The moment I saw you, I knew it for sure
You won't pack your bags anymore
Tell me
How can it be boy?
You're still a runaway
You chase the dreams from heaven above
Where in this world will you find a place to stay?
Runaway from love
How can it be boy?
You're still a runaway
You chase the dreams from heaven above, baby
Where in this world will you find a place to stay?
Runaway from love
Runaway from love (runaway)
I know you don't want to be a bother
Though your love's so undiscovered
I want you to stay boy
Stop running from love
How can it be boy?
You're still a runaway
You chase the dreams from heaven above
Where in this world will you find a place to stay?
Runaway from love
How can it be boy?
You're still a runaway
You chase the dreams from heaven above, baby
Where in this world will you find a place to stay?
Runaway from love
Don't look back as we runaway
And don't ask me if we're gonna be ok
Cuz I could say yes but I'd be lying
But we're both here now, so what's the harm in trying
One dream, one chance, one song, one dance
One way, but no day but today
Spread your wings and fly away
So be my man, and take my hand, and runaway with me
We'll find out who we are and who we're meant to be
A kiss, a wink, a tear, love isn't what we fear
It's losing love that scares us
And I know you're scared too of the danger of this game for two
But leave your fears behind, and together we will find
(That there's)
One dream, one chance, one song, one dance
One way, but no day but today
Spread your wings and fly away
So be my man, and take my hand, and runaway with me
We'll find out who we are and who we're meant to be
Commitments here and there, priorities never seem fair
When life can't get any rougher
I'll look into your eyes, there's no disguise
If love is true, then it's meant for me and you
(Oh, there's)
One dream, one chance, one song, one dance (yeah)
One way, but no day but today
Spread your wings and fly away
So be my man, and take my hand, and runaway with me
We'll find out who we are and who we're meant to be
(Fall in love
All I want is love)
Don't you touch me
Baby don't you touch me
What do you see? You're in ecstasy
On a mission Haunted by the vision
Got to believe it Now 1-2-3 yeah
Caught in a trap
Then we change
All is moving on
And now you're lost in outer space
And all I want is love
(Fall in love Will I fall in love?)
When did I dream That's it's only love?
Runaway get away Gotta fly away
TV warm Following scenery
Incredible getaway Gotta fly away
Billowing submarine Flyaway
When did I dream That's it's only love
That you lost?

Got to believe it Now 1-2-3 yeah
Caught in a trap
Then we change
All is moving on
And now you're lost in outer space

she had a dream that dated back to school in a time when things faded out so chased it with desire set the world on fire left all her friends and family behind pictures made her dirty movies far from clean did the things she thought she'd never do stepping-stones to glory spiral down to hell cover up the wounds they won't come clean electrified enough money buys too many bills it's time to kill lucky i resist all temptations revolving doors go round her appearance worse a need a scene that's hard to be noticed do everything to chase her dream living only to touch the moon but you never leave the ground they'll try to take away your will try to push you down purified not so qualified ever since the day that it changed your life terrified by the world outside they told me that i would never fit in next time i think i'll run away
{Words & Music: Hazel O'Connor}
You hate yourself, so you hate everybody else
People can make you feel small
Small is a size when age just won't rise fast enough
So you wait for the day, to be up get away
Run run as fast as you can
Over and Over and Over the hill far away
[CHORUS:]
Runaway
Is there something you're trying to say
Runaway
Please come home one day
Runaway
Is there something you're trying to say
Over and over and over and over again
I remember the day in a grey misty way
When we boarded the boat to the hook
I was sick to the sea that was beckoning me to it's end
In the light of the dawn, feeling ragged and worn
I pointed my thumb to the sky
Over and over and over that road again
[CHORUS]
Now in the light of experience
There's something I want to say
Now in the light of experience
There's nowhere to run to
If from yourself you're really running away
[CHORUS 2x]
As I walk along I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of the things we've done
together, while our hearts were young
I'm a-walking in the rain
tears are falling and I feel a pain
Wishin' you were here by me
to end this misery and I wonder
I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder why,
why-why-why-why-why
she ran away, and I wonder
where she will stay-yay,
my little Runaway,
As I walk along I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
As I still walk on I think of
The things we done together
While our hearts were young
I'm a-walking in the rain
To the bone I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder, wonder
Why, you ran away
And I wonder if you will stay
My little runaway, my runaway
(break)
I'm a-walking in the rain
To the bone I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder, wonder
Why, you ran away
And I wonder if you will stay
My little runaway, my runaway
Come back baby
You left me standing in the rain
