Grace Potter and Grace Potter & the Nocturnals - Runaway

I hit you like a plane
You feel the pain, I ain't coming back
I cut you, I cut you deep
'Cause you can't keep up on my track
If I loved you, I'd stick around
You're on the ground 'cause I knocked you down
And you're falling every night
Now you can't fight but I can hear you pray
I'll stay just one more day

But I always run away
I'm nothing but a runaway

I hooked you with the beat
The heavy heat gettin' out of hand
And I loved you in a lonely bed
The word you said made me understand
That if I loved you, I would stay
I'd never stray or runaway
And I fall down, lonely night
I can't fight but maybe I should pray Lord
Give me the strength to stay

'Cause I always run away
I'm nothing but a runaway
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa

Why can't I just stay in one place
Somebody gotta put me in a cage
Oh, I don't wanna be this way
Oh I'm nothing, nothing,
Nothing but a runaway
Nothing but a runaway
Oh I'm nothing but a runaway
Runaway, runaway, a runaway
