Runaway

Barcelona sunrise
Sleeping in my shoes
A shadow on a summer lawn
With nothing left to lose
I threw away the key
Threw away the news
Threw away the tears
Now I don’t sing the blues,
I don’t sing the blues
For the runaway,

I chase the dream in front of me
Runaway,
Find another way
Dry your eyes,
I may never reach the end,
Wouldn’t it be fine if I just ran?

Maria from the mountain
Paints an endless sea
She takes the highest bottle down
And says “this one is free”
So burn another page
Hail the refugee
The passenger of time
Is always free
Time is always free
For the runaway,

I chase the dream in front of me
Runaway,
Find another way
Dry your eyes,
I may never reach the end,
Wouldn’t it be fine if I just ran?

Once in your life turn your heel and walk away
You’ll see, like a dream, you are free
Wouldn’t that be fine for you and me?

The waiter never comes
The afternoon is slow
People hurry by,
Searching high and low,
Searching high and low
For the runaway,

I chase the dream in front of me
Runaway,
Find another way
Dry your eyes,
I may never reach the end,
Wouldn’t it be fine if I just ran?
