Runaway – Damn Yankees – letras

Written by Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades, Ted Nugent(Everyone needs a place to run away, run away)Summer night, moonlit skyTearing pages from a magazine, she cries »I don’t wanna be the lonely one tonight. »She said, « I came to this place, full of dreamsYoung and innocent and only 16Now I wonder why they call it Tparadise.’ »So she runs, and she hides, and she dries the tears fromher eyesAnd the night goes on, and on, and onShe’s in the twilight zone (twilight zone)Yeah, you gotta run, run, run awayIt’s such a long way homeWhen it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, run awayPerfect day, feels like SpringCan see forever but you can’t see anythingNow I wonder why they call it « paradise »It’s a crime, it’s a shameAnd they won’t remember your nameAnd your life goes on, and on, and onIt’s like the twilight zone (twilight zone)Yeah, you gotta run, run, run awayBut she won’t go homeSo she’s gotta run, run, run awayShe came from a small townSo tired of getting pushed aroundIn the dark of the night, no one aroundShe’ll run from this shabby town, yeah, yeah, yeah[guitar solo]It’s a laugh, it’s a gameDon’t you let it drive you insaneTCause your life goes on, and on, and on….It’s like the twilight zone (twilight zone)Yeah, you gotta run, run, run awayBut she won’t go homeWhen it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, run awayShe’s in the twilight zone (twilight zone)Yeah, you gotta run, run, run awayIt’s such a long way homeWhen it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, run away[chorus fades]
