Runaway

I was listenin' to the ocean

I saw a face in the sand

But when I picked it up

Then it vanished away from my hands, gone.

I had a dream I was seven

Climbing my way in a tree

I saw a piece of heaven

Waitin' impatient for me, down.

And I was runnin' far away

Would I run off the world someday?

Nobody knows, nobody knows

I was dancin' in the rain

I felt alive and I can't complain...

Now take me home

Take me home where I belong

I can't take it anymore.

I was painting a picture

The picture was a painting of you

And for a moment I thought you were here

But then again, it wasn't true, gone.

And all this time, I have been lyin'

Oh, lyin' in secret to myself

I've been putting sorrow on the farthest place on my shelf

La-di-da.

And I was runnin' far away

Would I run off the world someday?

Nobody knows, nobody knows

And I was dancin' in the rain

I felt alive and I can't complain

But now take me home

Take me home where I belong

I got no other place to go

Now take me home

Take me home where I belong

I got no other place to go

Now take me home

Take me home where I belong

I can't take it anymore.

But I kept runnin' for a soft place to fall

And I kept runnin' for a soft place to fall.

And I was runnin' far away

Would I run off the world someday?

But now take me home

Take me home where I belong

I got no other place to go

Now take me home

Take me home where I belong

I got no other place to go

Now take me home, home where I belong, now-now

Now take me home, home where I belong, oh

I can't take it anymore.
