Runaway Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Just arrived in town the hard way
No money and no one who knows my name
Dingy room just off the freeway
Another night, a different place
But one thing stays the same
I’m a runaway man
Keep on changing my plans
Seems whatever I do
There’s no home without you
I’ve done all that I can
And I know what I am
Just a runaway man
I never stayed too long in one place
The memories catch up with me too fast
Soon I picture only your face
And all the times I held you close and hoped that it would last
I’m a runaway man
Keep on changing my plans
Seems whatever I do
There’s no home without you
I’ve done all that I can
And I know what I am
Just a runaway man
I’ve been hung up, girl, on many things
Thank God always managed to get free
But you became a habit, that I didn’t wanna break
Losing you, girl, was much more than I can take
I’m a runaway man
Keep on changing my plans
Seems whatever I do
There’s no home without you
I’ve done all that I can
And I know what I am
Just a runaway man
I’m a runaway man
Keep on changing my plans
Seems whatever I do
There’s no home without you
I’ve done all that I can
And I know what I am
Just a runaway man
