Lyrics
Runaway
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.
I can see it in your eyes, that you're gonna run
You're gonna run
And I can hear it in the way that you speak to me
That you're gonna leave
So as you slip away, I will say
As you pack your things, I will sing
Even if you run away from me
Over the mountains, through the valleys
I will not rest, but search east and west to bring you back with me
Even if you sail away from me
Across the oceans and the seas
I will move again, like the mighty wind, and blow you back to me
I'm gonna move again, like the mighty wind, and blow you back to me
I have seen this all before, it is all too familiar
But you will never see the bottom of my storehouses of love
So as you use the night to make your flight
No choice that you will make, or path you take will change my mind
Even if one day you decide, you will find somewhere else to hide
I will walk your way, and call your name, and wait for your reply
Even if you make up in your mind, you don't want to be by my side
I will leave behind 99, oh that you'd be mine
I'm gonna leave behind 99, oh that you'd be mine
Even if you stomp and scream and huff, tell me that I'm not good enough
I'll take every swing and every blow, until you know my love
Even if you beat upon my chest, tell me that you don't understand
I will love you and teach you to love me again
I'm gonna love you and teach you to love me again
