Runaway, won’t you please take my hand
Faraway, to a beautiful land
The wind is calling us, telling us to break away
Oh my sweet, sweet darlin’, runaway
Don’t you think we’ve had enough of this dirty town
There ain’t nothing here for you and me
Let’s leave it all behind, you’re only lonely girl
Now’s the time to break away and be free
Runaway, won’t you please take my hand
Faraway, to a beautiful land
The wind is calling us, telling us to break away
Oh my sweet, sweet darlin’, runaway
There’s a place I know somewhere, up around the bend
Where the people treat you nice’n’kind
Come on baby, take a chance, let’s leave this lonely town
In the end you know it’s just you and me
Runaway, won’t you please take my hand
Faraway, to a beautiful land
The wind is calling us, telling us to break away
Oh my sweet, sweet darlin’, runaway
