Testo The Runaway - Danny O'Keefe
Testo della canzone The Runaway (Danny O'Keefe), tratta dall'album The Collection
Your daddy hit you and you fell to the floor
And you knew that you weren't daddy's girl no more
So you packed your bag and you hitched a ride
And you ended up on the underside
Of a New York night, what a lonely place
There's too many people and not enough space
For a runaway
For a runaway
Oh, you don't wanna leave but there's nowhere to stay
So you run away from home
Nobody's willing to lend you a hand
Except a pimp who thinks he's a businessman
He'll tear the spirit away from the soul
And he'll sell you in pieces or he'll sell you whole
To withered men who think it's funny
To be fourteen and selling your love for money
When you run away
When you run away
You don't wanna leave but there's nowhere to stay
So you run away from home
You never get love, you live without hope
Like dangling too long at the end of a rope
We're a nation of strangers and most of us blind
Our children will lead us or leave us behind
When they run away
When they run away
Oh, they don't wanna leave but there's nowhere to stay
So they run away
Oh, they run away
Yes, they run away from home
From home
Runaway
Runaway
Runaway
Runaway
