Damn Yankees Runaway Lyrics

Runaway Lyrics

(Everyone needs a place to run away, run away)

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)
Twilight
zone, yeah, you gotta run, run, run away
(It's such a long way home)
When
it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, run away

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)
Twilight zone, yeah, you gotta run, run, run away
(But she won't go
home)
So she's gotta run, run, run away

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

(Solo)

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)
Twilight zone, yeah, you gotta run, run, run away
(But she
won't go home)
When it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, run away, yeah, yeah,
yeah

(She's in the twilight zone)
Twilight zone, yeah, you gotta run,
run, run away
All you got is to run away
(It's why she runs home)
You
gotta run, run, run away
Run, run, run away

(Twilight
zone)
Twilight zone, don't you know you gotta run, run, run away
Don't
you know you gotta run
(But she won't go home, when it hurts so bad)
You
gotta run, run, run away
(She's in the twilight zone)
Twilight zone,
don't you know you gotta run, run, run away
