Runaway Lyrics

You're just a runaway, running away
You're just a runaway, running away
When i met you, you were just sixteen
All alone
You were on the street
Your father was a drunk
Your family was poor
I promised you that
I would even the score

I took you in
I gave you a home
I gave you confidence
I gave you hope
And now you wanna leave me
Is that a treat?
Tell me is this the thanks i get?

You think of running away
You'd run away
I'm gonna make you stay

You're just a runaway
Running away
[don't runaway
Don't runaway]

You're just a runaway
Running away

Stop running away
Stop running away

I wanna thank you
For all that you've done
We have memories, we had such fun, but
I never promised you anything
Not even back when i was sixteen

The way i feel is plain to see
You'll always be something special to me
But, it's time to move on
There's a hole world to see
There's a woman inside of me
That wants to be free

You think of running away
I'm gonna make you stay

You're just a runaway
Running away
[don't runaway
Don't runaway]

You're just a runaway
Running away
Stop running away
Stop running away

I just can't live without you
Thought i knew everything
About you
Before you run, before you go
I just want you to know

You're just a runaway
Running away

You've gotta stay, just gotta stay

You're just a runaway
Running away

Stop running away
Stop running away

You're just a runaway
Running away

Stop running away
Stop running away

Oh baby, baby baby...
