Mark Golamco - Runaways Lyrics

Fifteen years old
Far too young an age to runaway from home
Must have taken lots of courage
To try to even understand
What it means to become a full grown man

Sometimes the night
Can surprise you with daylight
How'd you grow up to be so kind?
I once had a mind I kept to myself all the time
Then I met you, you gave me life

And I know we're not yet in the clear
With those dogs and the devil at our heel
Still together with hope on our side
There's a way to leave yourself behind

Fifteen years ago
Who'd have ever guessed, who could have known?
While the world kept on running
And no matter how hard we tried
That a ticket on a Greyhound could save our lives

Sometimes the night
Can surprise you with daylight
How'd you grow up to be so kind?
I once had a mind I kept to myself all the time
Then I met you, you gave me life

And I know we're not yet in the clear
With those dogs and the devil at our heel
Still together with hope on our side
There's a way to leave yourself behind

And though you're soft spoken
All the words that you've said
Keep on running like a race horse
Through my heart and my head
I don't wanna live if this comes to an end
I don't wanna live if this comes to an end
