Lyrics
0:09I was just a poor young little ugly thing
0:18Momma kicked me out just shy of 17
0:27I was lookin' for love in the fire in the flames
0:33But the only way to love is to get yourself hurt
0:41That's how I became a runaway
1:01I gave my hand to a man
1:03He put the ring on me
1:09He couldn't understand why
1:12He wasn't just like me
1:18I should've known by the look in his eyes
1:24We looked at the same lies
1:29That's what I realized
1:34No hands will hold me
1:36I'll always be lonely
1:39Is there someone out there who can break
1:42This habit of going
1:44There's no way of knowing
1:47I promise I'll always be
1:51Your little runaway
2:01Your little runaway
2:12If you're not careful you'll get your heart broken
2:20Take me as an example I'll be your token
2:28I used to fall head over feet
2:33With everyone I loved to see with me
2:38So what choice does that leave
2:45A runaway
2:54You could say my shadow is the only friend of mine
3:03But it gets pretty lonely in the nighttime
3:12My shadow is almost as hard to see oh
3:20Almost as hard as it is to love me
3:25A runaway
3:28No hands will hold me
3:29I'll always be lonely
3:32Is there someone out there who can break
3:36This habit of going
3:38There's no way of knowing
3:40I promise I'll always be
3:45Your little runaway
3:55I'll be your runaway
I was just a poor young little ugly thing Momma kicked me out just shy of 17 I was lookin' for love in the fire in the flames But the only way to love is to get yourself hurt That's how I became a runaway I gave my hand to a man He put the ring on me He couldn't understand why He wasn't just like me I should've known by the look in his eyes We looked at the same lies That's what I realized No hands will hold me I'll always be lonely Is there someone out there who can break This habit of going There's no way of knowing I promise I'll always be Your little runaway Your little runaway If you're not careful you'll get your heart broken Take me as an example I'll be your token I used to fall head over feet With everyone I loved to see with me So what choice does that leave A runaway You could say my shadow is the only friend of mine But it gets pretty lonely in the nighttime My shadow is almost as hard to see oh Almost as hard as it is to love me A runaway No hands will hold me I'll always be lonely Is there someone out there who can break This habit of going There's no way of knowing I promise I'll always be Your little runaway I'll be your runaway
