Billy Bauer Run Away
She puts the windows down and starts to frown
She won’t smile, no not one bit
She thinks that life’s all sad, so she lives mad
She wonders how’d it get so bad
She looks out the window at the pouring rain
Wondering how it got this way
No time to stop or think or contemplate
What will become of this day because
She needs something to make her sing
Like a nice bright sunny day
Perhaps a day when things will go her way
Would this be nice to say
To say yeah
To say run away
Run away, run away, run away
One time, two times, she counts in her mind
And twiddles her thumbs for a bit
She’s tired of life and all of this
Who needs this shit because
She needs something to make her sing
Like a nice bright sunny day
Perhaps a day when things will go her way
Would it be nice to say
To say yeah
To say run away
Run away, run away, run away, run away
Do you remember when you could paint the sky
With those dreams inside your mind
And fill the darkest place
With half your smile tied behind your face
To make it even for a while
And then you’d sing this song, and you’ll think of me
And it will make you feel happy
And then you won’t decide to run away
Run away
