Runaway

There's a runaway child
On the streets tonight
Only needed love
She's a fallen angel's sacrifice
Only needed love

And she don't know why
Mama never cared or cried
Daddy's little girl has her
Deepest scars inside

She says it's alright
I'm glad it's all over
There's just one problem
That she'll have to face
She'll be back, jack
Turnin 'em over, makin' money
Turning tricks and dates

She don't know where she's goin'
Only she know where she's been
And if that pain inside's still growin'
Don't give in
All alone when the cold winds blow
She'll sell a piece of her soul

Take these broken wings of love
And learn to fly, rise above
Keep your faith in god and love
'Cause heaven holds a place in your name

And there just ain't enough
Love going round 'n round 'n round 'n round

(Solo)

Take these broken wings of love
And learn to fly, rise above
Keep your faith in god and love
'Cause heaven holds a place in your name

There's a suicide call on the line tonight
Only needing love
There's a fallen angel in my sight
Only needed love
And she don't know why
Mama never cared or cried
Daddy's little girl holds her
Deeper scars inside

All alone where the cold winds blow
Stand alone when the water flows
Come on, baby
It'll be alright
Save your soul tonight

Take these broken wings of love
And learn to fly, rise above
Keep your faith in god and love
'Cause heaven holds a place in your name

Take these broken wings of love
And learn to fly, rise above
Keep your faith in god and love
'Cause heaven holds a place in your name

There's a runaway child
On the street tonight
She's a fallen angel's sacrifice
And there's a suicide call on the line tonight
There's a blood red stain on the wire tonight
Come on, baby
