Prodigal Lyrics

We say goodbye, I turn my back

Run away, run away, so predictable

Not far from here, you see me crack

Like a bone, like a bone, I'm so breakable



I'll take everything from you

But you'll take anything, won't you?



Run away, run away like a prodigal

Don't you wait for me, don't you wait for me

So ashamed, so ashamed but I need you so

And you wait for me, and you wait for me



I'm on the road to who knows where

Look ahead, not behind I keep saying

There's no place to go where you're not there

On your rope I hold tight but it's freeing



I'll take everything from you

But you'll take anything, won't you?



Run away, run away like a prodigal

Don't you wait for me, don't you wait for me

So ashamed, so ashamed but I need you so

And you wait for me, and you wait for me



Everybody wants to be right

But only if it's not a day light

I keep trying to find my way back

My way back



Run away, run away like a prodigal

Don't you wait for me, don't you wait for me

So ashamed, so ashamed but I need you so

And you wait for me, and you wait for me



Runaway, runaway, runaway

From you, from you, from you
