Tanika - Runaway lyrics
[Tanika - Runaway lyrics]
You been on the run-around
Another night, another town, a little week
Don’t get you down, until you fell
And you hit the ground
So you went around the block
Again, another man, another friend
And little lies
Until you said you better sleep
It’ll never help
So you click your black heels three times
But you never get home
You still lay in his bed
Feeling dirty and alone
You toss and turn ’cause you
Know you gon’ be lost
Lost inside this ghetto fairytale gone wrong
‘Cause you don’t have to run away
You never have to run away
No, you never have to run away no more
But you don’t wanna be alone
You never wanna be alone
But you know you’re gonna
Run yourself back home
Lover baby on the way, a different girl
A different end
You couldn’t bear to see the face so you
Left a note that daddy couldn’t stay
But you got nowhere to lay your head
’cause everywhere you slept is your hair
Your lot of fun
Then you got so scared that you had to run
So you click your Amex three times
But you’ll never get home
You spend all of your days
Living like a rolling stone
And now you wish you had somewhere to belong
Somebody that you could your own
Now you wanna run away
You always wanna run away
You always wanna run away hey hey hey
You always wanna run away
You always wanna run away
But you know you’re gonna have
To change your ways
Lo, since you sold your soul
Stranger in the mirror
Stand and stare at your dirty shoes
They gonna get you home
‘Cause you don’t have to run away
You never have to run away
No, you never have to run away no more
But you don’t wanna be alone
You never wanna be alone
But you know you gotta run yourself back home
You have to run yourself back home
He have to run himself back home
She have to run herself back home
You have to run yourself, ya know
Another night, another town, a little week
Don’t get you down, until you fell
And you hit the ground
So you went around the block
Again, another man, another friend
And little lies
Until you said you better sleep
It’ll never help
So you click your black heels three times
But you never get home
You still lay in his bed
Feeling dirty and alone
You toss and turn ’cause you
Know you gon’ be lost
Lost inside this ghetto fairytale gone wrong
‘Cause you don’t have to run away
You never have to run away
No, you never have to run away no more
But you don’t wanna be alone
You never wanna be alone
But you know you’re gonna
Run yourself back home
Lover baby on the way, a different girl
A different end
You couldn’t bear to see the face so you
Left a note that daddy couldn’t stay
But you got nowhere to lay your head
’cause everywhere you slept is your hair
Your lot of fun
Then you got so scared that you had to run
So you click your Amex three times
But you’ll never get home
You spend all of your days
Living like a rolling stone
And now you wish you had somewhere to belong
Somebody that you could your own
Now you wanna run away
You always wanna run away
You always wanna run away hey hey hey
You always wanna run away
You always wanna run away
But you know you’re gonna have
To change your ways
Lo, since you sold your soul
Stranger in the mirror
Stand and stare at your dirty shoes
They gonna get you home
‘Cause you don’t have to run away
You never have to run away
No, you never have to run away no more
But you don’t wanna be alone
You never wanna be alone
But you know you gotta run yourself back home
You have to run yourself back home
He have to run himself back home
She have to run herself back home
You have to run yourself, ya know
