Runaway

Came to the city just a country girl

Thinking how fast can you change the world

But to your surprise

It all takes time

Flashing lights like you're a movie star

It's just the glare coming off the bar

It's not what you thought

Not the ticket you bought

This lonesome road can make you

It'll grab a hold and take you

You can't do much 'bout what they think

They'll be movin' on before you can blink

Now it's alright

It's okay

Eveything's moving away too fast

You're just a runaway

And it's alright

It's okay

You're trying to make it on your own

You're just a runaway

Came to the city just a simple kid

Made you a woman look at what they did

Ripped out another page

Left it on the stage

All you can breathe is the cloudy air

Root for the smoke and the twisted stairs

You can make it back

Just across the tracks

The cold hard streets can make you

The sleepless nights might take you

You can lose yourself before you wake

It won't be long before you break

(Yeah)

It's alright

It's okay

Everything's movin' away too fast

You're just a runaway

And it's alright

It's okay

You'll try to make it on your own

You're just a runaway

You're just a runaway

(Yeah)(oh now)

It's alright

It's okay

Everything's movin' away too fast

And it's alright

It's okay

You'll try to make it on your own

You're just a runaway

So all alone

And now you're tryin' to make it on your own

You're just a runaway

You're just a runaway
