Runaway

Runaway
Today's the day she left her home
And everything has changed
Runaway
Today's the day they blink their eyes
And she is miles away
Runaway
On her way south to Georgia
Where she's heard good things
Runaway
In her opinion anywhere was better
Than the state she was in

But in the place where she runs to
Still there's a refuge

Runaway
Home was hanging on by threads
But she had called it chains
Runaway
Living with a man she thought would change
But always stayed the same
Runaway
She could do much better than she did
At times she thought that way
Runaway
Breaking up was hard to do
Instead she broke away

But in the place where she runs to
Still there's a refuge

Runaway
She packed her bags and she left no room
For yesterday
Runaway
She wrote a farewell letter with her tires in black
On his driveway
Runaway
The freeway felt a lot like freedom
As she drove away
Runaway
Even if the car breaks down
She'll take the midnight train, train

In you, O LORD, I have taken refuge
Let me never be put to shame
Deliver me into your righteousness
Turn your ear to me
Come quickly to my rescue
Be my rock of refuge
A strong fortress to save me
Since you are my rock and my fortress
For the sake of your name lead and guide me

But in the place where she runs to
Still there's a refuge

For I hear the slander of many
There is terror on every side
They conspire against me
And plot to take my life
But I trust in you, O LORD
I say, "You are my God."
But I trust in you, O LORD
I say, "You are my God."

Still there is a refuge
