Runaway

[Verse 1] I was just a poor young little ugly thing Momma kicked me out, just shy of 17 I was lookin' for love, in the fire, in the flames But the only way to love, is to get yourself burned That's how I became the runaway [Verse 2] I gave my hand to a man, he put the ring on me He couldn't understand why he wasn't just like me I should've known by the look in his eyes We looked at the same guys That's when I realized [Chorus] No hands will hold me I'll always be lonely Is there someone out there who can break This habit of going There's no way of knowing I promise I'll always be a little runaway Your little runaway [Verse 3] If you're not careful, you'll get your heart broken Take me as an example, I'll be a token I used to fall head over feet But everyone I loved deceived me So, what choice does that leave A runaway [Verse 4] You could say my shadow is the only friend of mine But it gets pretty lonely in the nighttime My shadow is almost as hard to see, oh Almost as hard as it is to love me A runaway [Chorus] No hands will hold me I'll always be lonely Is there someone out there who can break This habit of going There's no way of knowing I promise I'll always be a little runaway I'll be a runaway
