Runaway Lyrics - Singles - Oconnor Hazel

{Words & Music: Hazel O'Connor} 

You hate yourself, so you hate everybody else 

People can make you feel small 

Small is a size when age just won't rise fast enough 

So you wait for the day, to be up get away 

Run run as fast as you can 

Over and Over and Over the hill far away 

[CHORUS:] 

Runaway 

Is there something you're trying to say 

Runaway 

Please come home one day 

Runaway 

Is there something you're trying to say 

Over and over and over and over again 

I remember the day in a grey misty way 

When we boarded the boat to the hook 

I was sick to the sea that was beckoning me to it's end 

In the light of the dawn, feeling ragged and worn 

I pointed my thumb to the sky 

Over and over and over that road again 

[CHORUS] 

Now in the light of experience 

There's something I want to say 

Now in the light of experience 

There's nowhere to run to 

If from yourself you're really running away 

[CHORUS 2x] 

Runaway!
