"Let's Run Away Girl" lyrics

"Let's Run Away Girl"

Sittin' alone out in the ugliest part of town
Oh, yeah
A beautiful sight came out of nowhere to live in the night
Oh, yeah

A queen in the midst of a slum
Made me feel kinda numb

I had to say, "Let's run away, girl, away from the sorrow
Out of the darkness and into the sun
Let's run away, girl, right into tomorrow
Where life and love waits for everyone"

She sat down beside me, I let her confide in me
Oh, yes, I did
Somebody else had the love that I wanted so bad
Oh, yeah

She cries from a-hurtin' so
Still, he just won't let her go

Still, I say, "Let's run away, girl, away from the sorrow
Out of the darkness and into the sun
Let's run away, girl, right into tomorrow
Where life and love waits for everyone"

Oh, a queen in the midst of a slum
Made me feel kinda numb

I had to say, "Let's run away, girl, away from the sorrow
Out of the darkness and into the sun
Let's run away, girl, right into tomorrow
Where life and love waits for everyone"
Let's run away, girl, away from the sorrow
Out of the darkness and into the sun
Let's run away, girl, right into tomorrow
Where life and love waits for everyone
