Runaway

California is a thousand miles away
Had to speak to mama before she took me away
Fears in the tears that she cried on that day
If a boy wants to feel he’s gotta hide
Or runaway
Now I’m way off track
This weight on my back got me bleeding
I’m through with that balancing act
I’ve been keeping
Gotta runaway ooh
Runaway ooh
Runaway
When it all gets too heavy
Runaway ooh
Runaway ooh
Runaway
And your heart just ain’t ready
California is a thousand miles away
Couldn’t speak to papa
Tell me what does that little boy say?
Fears in the tears, they subside
'Cos I’m a man
If a boy wants to feel he’s gotta hide
But it hurts him so bad
Now I’m way off track
This weight on my back got me bleeding
I’m through with that balancing act
I’ve been keeping
Gotta runaway ooh
Runaway ooh
Runaway
When it all gets too heavy
Runaway ooh
Runaway ooh
Runaway
And your heart just ain’t ready
Whoa
Aaaah eeeaah
I’m way off track
This weight on my back got me bleeding
I’m through with that balancing act
I’ve been keeping
Gotta runaway ooh
Runaway ooh
Runaway
When it all gets too heavy
Runaway ooh
Runaway ooh
Runaway
And your heart just ain’t ready
