Danny Wood - Runaway lyrics

rate me

Came to the city just a country girl<br />

Thinking how fast can you change the world<br />

But to your surprise<br />

It all takes time<br />

<br />

Flashing lights like you're a movie star<br />

It's just the glare coming off the bar<br />

It's not what you thought<br />

Not the ticket you bought<br />

<br />

This lonesome road can make you<br />

It'll grab a hold and take you<br />

You can't do much 'bout what they think<br />

They'll be movin' on before you can blink<br />

<br />

Now it's alright<br />

It's okay<br />

Eveything's moving away too fast<br />

You're just a runaway<br />

<br />

And it's alright<br />

It's okay<br />

You're trying to make it on your own<br />

You're just a runaway<br />

<br />

Came to the city just a simple kid<br />

Made you a woman look at what they did<br />

Ripped out another page<br />

Left it on the stage<br />

<br />

All you can breathe is the cloudy air<br />

Root for the smoke and the twisted stairs<br />

You can make it back<br />

Just across the tracks<br />

<br />

The cold hard streets can make you<br />

The sleepless nights might take you<br />

You can lose yourself before you wake<br />

It won't be long before you break<br />

<br />

(Yeah)<br />

It's alright<br />

It's okay<br />

Everything's movin' away too fast<br />

You're just a runaway<br />

<br />

And it's alright<br />

It's okay<br />

You'll try to make it on your own<br />

You're just a runaway<br />

<br />

You're just a runaway<br />

<br />

(Yeah)(oh now)<br />

It's alright<br />

It's okay<br />

Everything's movin' away too fast<br />

<br />

And it's alright<br />

It's okay<br />

You'll try to make it on your own<br />

You're just a runaway<br />

<br />

So all alone<br />

And now you're tryin' to make it on your own<br />

You're just a runaway<br />

You're just a runaway</
