"Runaways" lyrics

"Runaways"

We're runaways
Sleeping shadows from a distant light
Scorned lovers on the make tonight
It's us, we could be running wild

We're damaged goods
And baby that ain't good enough
We've been bitten by the hounds of love
And these howling winds are calling us

Well maybe we've got nothing to lose
It's in the arms of the night that one by one we break through
You know that it's the danger we crave
Under the firing line we throw it all away

We're runaways
Nobody sees the need for us
Our bodies feeding off that different touch
And this restlessness will never stop
We're damaged goods
And baby that ain't good enough
There's a hunger that keeps pulling us further and further away

Well maybe we've got nothing to lose
It's in the arms of the night that one by one we break through
You know that it's the danger we crave
Under the firing line we throw it all away

Well baby we got nothing to prove
Can't you see in my eyes I'm just as reckless as you
So what if it's the danger we crave
It makes us run away

We're runaways
We're runaways

You say that we've got nothing to lose
It's in the arms of the night that one by one we break through
You tell me it's the danger you crave
Under the firing line we'll throw it all away
Well baby we got nothing to prove
Can't you see in my eyes I'm just as reckless as you
So what if it's the danger we crave
In the dead of the night we're all just runaways

[Repeat until the end:]
You're just a runaway
