GRACE POTTER AND THE NOCTURNALS
"Runaway"
(Dan Auerbach / Matthew Burr / Grace Potter / Scott Tournet / Benny Yurco)

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

I hit you like a train
You feel the pain
I ain't coming back
I cut you
Cut you deep
But you can't keep up on my truck
If I loved you I'd stick around
Your on the ground
'Cause I knocked you down
And Your falling
Every night
That you can't fight that I can hear you pray
I'd stay just one more day

But I always run away
I'm nothing but a runaway

I hooked you
With the beat
The heavy heat gettin' outta hand
And I loved you
In the lonely bed
The word you said, baby understand
That if I loved you, I would stay
I'd never stray then runaway
And I'll fall down
Lonely night, I can't fight
But maybe I should pray
Lord, give me the strength to stay

'Cause I always runaway
I'm nothing but a runaway

Oh oh oh oh oh

Why can't I just stay in one place
Somebody got to put me in a cage
Oh, I don't want to be this way, oh

I'm nothing, nothing
Nothing but a runaway
Nothing but a runaway

Ooooh, I'm nothing but a runaway
Runaway
A runaway
A runaway
Ooooh, ooooh, oooh-ooooohh

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
