KENNY LOGGINS - Hope For The Runaway lyrics

rate me

Out in the city strees

Alone and weak from the cold and hunger,

Trembling hands unfold a photograph.

Mom and Dan and Ann Marie,

Smiles from a distant sunrise,

The only smile you've seen in days.

CHORUS

Come back to me

Come back my darlin'

Come back to me

Or I will fade away

Come back to me

Come back my darlin'

I still believe in you

My runaway.

Jesse and Willy Lee

Play in the street while their mother wonders,

"Why won't they listen to a word I say?"

I sing a lullaby

To the baby in my arms

And the laughter fades away.

CHORUS

Come back to me

Come back my darlin'

I'm sending hope

For the runaway

Somewhere a flash of light

Cuts through the night

Like a lighthouse callin'

All of the lost and forgotten.

I made a vow I will continue

'Till i find you.

I'll never stop, I'll never stop believein'

I will wait for you forever

Sending you Hope for the runaway.
