Status Quo
Runaway
Riding on a high, riding so high now I'm leaving
Am I running far from my own fears
I'm never facing up, I never face up to the reasons
And never showing any of my tears
'Cos I leave out the back way, not the way that I came in
Because it seems like the logical way, at the time

And then I run, run, run and seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run, I'm a runaway

Can I go back, can I go back where I started?
I always will remember my needs

Take me far away, take me away to an island
And leave me here to cry in my own tears
Try me once again, try me again when you're passing
Maybe I'll remember you in years
I can't go out the back way, just the way that I came in
I hope it seems like the logical way, at the time

Because I'll run, run, run and seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run, I'm a runaway
Can I go back, can I go back where I started?
I always will remember my needs
Looking for so long but I am listening longer
I haven't seen or heard a thing from you
I can't stay here, I couldn't stay here if you paid me
I can't give you any guarantees
I won't go out the back way, not the way that I came in
Because it seems like the logical way, at the time

And then I run, run, run and seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run, I'm a runaway
Can I go back, can I go back where I started?
I always will remember my needs

Can I go back, can I go back where I started?
I always will remember my needs
I always will remember my needs
I said, I always will remember my needs
