Runaway

(R. Berry)

You're headed for a better life
Something you can feel deep inside
Somewhere where the lights are low
And there ain't nobody around to go
Saying things that just ain't true
Making such a fool out of you
They think they know just where you've been
And they make you feel like living is a sin
So you
Run run runaway
And tell me that there's no other way
Say that you'll be leaving soon
You say there's nothing else you can do
Oh can't you see I'm just a runaway too

But you keep on running
Been livin' in been livin' out
You want to know what life's all about
You're finding that it ain't as good
It don't do what they tell you it would
So now's the time to moke it right
You'll walk on out when no one's in sight
I still think there's a better way
But you can't find a reason to stay
So you
