Runaway Lyrics


Shirley Bassey Runaway

I'm lost, I've gone astray
But I can't go
I'd like to runaway 
There's a greyhound bus that's leaving 

Half past four
This time it's over if I take it
So I slowly cross the room 
And at the door
That's one mistake to make, when I maked it
I start to see you sleeping 
Lying there
One empty cup, one empty chair 
I'd like to runaway 

But I can't go
I'd like to find a way 
But I can't go
I'm lost, I've gone astray 

But I can't go
No, I can't take it
No, I can't fake it
No, I couldn't make it through alone
I couldn't make it oh... 
So instead I set my bag down 

That Ain't fair
You're still sleeping like a baby
I touch your lips, your eyes, your mouth 
And kiss your hair
It might just workout 
Who knows, maybe
I was sure that I could make it 
Through the door
Find someone else who needs me more 
I'd like to runaway 

But I can't go
I'd like to find a way 
But I can't go
I'm lost, I've gone astray 

But I can't go
No, I can't take it
No, I can't fake it
No, I couldn't make it through alone
I couldn't make it oh...
