Ringo Starr
Runaways
[Verse 1]
Outside there's a runaway
The lights go down, the world goes rushing in
Neon light takes the light of day
Stars like dust start falling
Inside there's a loneliness
The demon tries to charm you with his smile
No time to dream or rest
In the caves of steel, faces are changing

[Chorus]
They're the runaways [x2]
Children of the damned
They're the runaways
Running for their life, faster than they can
They're the runaways

[Verse 2]
On the street the traffic dies
The break of day, it always comes too soon
Running out of reasons why
All your life you blamed it on the moon
Look out for the danger signs
You're stealing time but you know you'll never win
Another border line
In the caves of steel, faces are changing
[Chorus]
They're the runaways
Children of the night
They're the runaways
Running for your life, faster than you can
They're the runaways, run, run, runaways

[Verse 3]
Nightmares chase the dreams away
The cold night reflects the way you feel
It's just another town
It's just one more night to kill
All the streets are empty now
Like the wolf, you walk this night alone
And in some other world
In the caves of steel, faces are changing

[Chorus]
They're the runaways, (they're the runaways)
(run, run, run)
They're the runaways, (they're they runaways)
Children of the night
They're the runaways, (run, run, run, run away)
Running for your life, faster than you can
They're the runaways. (run, run, run, run away)
Children of the damned
They're the runaways, (they're the runaways)
Running for your life, (faster than they can)
They're the runaways. (run, run, runaways)
They're the runaways, (they're the runaways)
(children of the night)
They're the runaways. (they're the runaways)
(running for their life, faster than they can)
(they're the runaways)
(run, run, run, run away)
Run
