Runaway - Rockwell

She’s so serious

She’s looking for a better way

Her Midwest town has got her down

She’s leaving home today

She’s so curious

To find out what she’s missed

Small town girl in a big time world

Soon she’ll get her wish

She’s a runaway

Out there on her own

She’s a runaway

Headin' for the danger zone

She’s delirious

It’s like a movie on the silver screen

Fancy cars and movie stars

In 20-foot limousines

Here comes the man without a shadow

She’ll never tell him that she’s just 16

To him, it really doesn’t matter

They’re never as young as they seem

She’s a runaway

Out there on her own

She’s a young stray

Livin' in the danger zone

It didn’t take her long to figure out

All of his promises were lies

His only purpose was to use her up

She couldn’t get away if she tried

She’s a runaway

Out there on her own

She’s a runaway

Livin' in the danger zone

She’s a runaway

Out there on her own

She’s a runaway

Livin' in the danger zone

She gave her innocence

For what she thought was love

But what she got was much too hot

He’s strung her out on drugs

She’s got nowhere to turn

The dream becomes a nightmare

All alone, starts to think of home

Wishing she was there

She’s a runaway

Out there on her own

She’s a runaway

Livin' in the danger zone

She’s a runaway

Out there on her own

She’s a young stray

Livin' in the danger zone

She’s a runaway

Out there on her own

She’s a runaway

Livin' in the danger zone

She’s a runaway

Out there on her own

She’s a young stray
