Runaway Lyrics - Chris Rea

Sitting at the crossways 

Trying to keep my cool with the traffic lights 

I've been up and down this line so any times 

Girl, it's never right 

Me and this machine keep the crazy urban dream 

Locked in overflow 

Sometimes I swear I could spin these old wheels 

Just let it go 

Runaway 

Is it something that you hear 

Coming through the waves on the radio 

Or something that you see gently taps your memory 

And shoots you down 

Those hometown thoughts, school yard dreams and yesterdays 

Moving in I just put my head down and drift away 

And we're moving up and down, in and out of town 

We're all searching for that piece of higher ground somewhere
