Janie Runaway

It must have been my lucky thursday
Your dad went on that spree
Before the crew could put out the fires
You hopped a bus for nyc
Down in tampa the future looked desperate and dark
Now youre the wonderwaif of gramercy park
Chorus:
Who makes the morning fabulous
Who says todays a fun day
Why do I feel like sailing again
Honey its you - janie runaway
Lets grab some takeout from dean and deluca
A hearty gulping wine
You be the showgirl and Ill be sinatra
Way back in 59
Sweetness in heels - look at you - in long black gloves
Come to old blue eyes tell me - who do you love
Chorus:
Who makes the traffic interesting
Rescues a dreary sunday
Who makes me feel like painting again
Honey its you - janie runaway
Lets plan a weekend alone together
Drive out to binkys place
The sugar shack in pennsylvania
Or would that be a federal case?
Well take the big red - the blazer - its nice inside
And guess whos coming along for the ride
Chorus:
Who has a friend named melanie
Whos not afraid to try new things
Who gets to spend her birthday in spain
Possibly you - janie runaway

She had to take him down easy
And put a bullet in his brain
She said cause nobody believes me
The man was such a sleeze
He ain't never gonna be the same
Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away

Runaway Jim

I had a dog.
His name was Jim
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Took all of my old clothes with him.
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Whoa-ooooooooooooooo oh Runaway Jim
Whoa-ooooooooooooooo oh Runaway Jim
He was twelve years old when his trip began,
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Hauling down the highway in my old sedan.
(Runaway, runaway, runaway.)
Whoa-ooooooooooooooo oh Runaway Jim
Whoa-ooooooooooooooo oh Runaway Jim
Now I wish someone'd tell me where old Jim went,
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
'Cause he took all the money that I saved for rent.
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Whoa-ooooooooooooooo oh Runaway Jim
Whoa-ooooooooooooooo oh Runaway Jim
By the time he came home he was seventeen.
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
That's a hundred nineteen to you and me.
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Whoa-ooooooooooooooo oh Runaway Jim
Whoa-ooooooooooooooo oh Runaway Jim
Now I'm gonna go up to the mountain.
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Singing for Jim who's swimming in the fountain.
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
Whoa-ooooooooooooooo oh Runaway Jim
Whoa-ooooooooooooooo oh Runaway Jim
"By the time he came home..."
before the 1st break, and comes out of it with:
He ran away again on the night he died
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)
'Cause I knew I would miss him from the other side *
(Runaway, runaway, runaway)*
or
"Cause I knew I'd be with him on the other side

Runaway Feelin

Got a crazy, restless feelin
I cannot be consoled
Got an itchy urge to up and run
I think Ive lost control
You do something to me
Something that I really cant explain
I aint felt like this since ize a kid
And I never thought Id feel this much again
Chorus:
Ive got that runaway feelin
Like to grab you up
Just run off, footloose and fancy free
Yeah, that thoughts appealing
That runaway feelins let my feelins run away with me
I get all swimmy-headed everytime I look at you
Though love has blurred my vision, I still enjoy the view
Like elvis and his hound dog, in a deep fog
I keep arunnin after you
I thought Id been in love before
But before doesnt matter anymore
Repeat chorus
Ah, run with it, boys
Repeat chorus
Tag:
Ive got that runaway feelin (runaway)
Runaway feelin (runaway)
Wont you run away with me

Anytime

Gonna get in the car with a smile and the burn that I put on my arm the day you
Went away girl and I probably wont come back around agian.
(repeat)
Gonna drive all night through the red lights flying, over the hill to the
County line blind, forgetting to forget that youre not mine.
(chorus 1) kiss your appocolyps for the last, last time runaway runaway runaway
I cant find anytime you think it changed your mind,
(chorus 2) anytime you want jump back too me anytime, jump back to me anytime,
Jump back to me anytime, come back one more time anytime.
Theres a place where I go to take the edge of the day, when the radios up your
Face fades away, flicker flicker dim and fade to black.
With a back pack packed, with a mug and a map. gonna drive to fast, gonna not
Look back, light the night with a blow torch and a match.
(chorus 1+2)
Got no time reason or rime, not gonna stop, gonna ride all night
(repeat three times)
(chorus 2)(without you want)
(chorus 1)(twice)
For the last time (4 times)

Runaway Child

Runaway Child, don’t have to take it anymore

Runaway Child, just walk out of that door

Runaway Child, no more chances to take

Runaway Child, it’s your choice to make

Runaway Child, aren’t you sick and tired of the pain

Runaway Child, here there’s nothing to gain

Runaway Child, you get treated like dirt

Runaway Child, get away from the hurt

Runaway Child, here it’s no use

Runaway Child, get away from the abuse

Runaway Child, you don’t have 9 lives

Runaway Child, take that step or dive

Runaway Child, why are you still there

Runaway Child, how much pain can you bear

Runaway Child, you don’t have to say goodbye

Runaway Child, say goodbye, when they DIE!

Tracking Down A Runaway

Call out the dogs and the National Guard.
My baby got away and I'm taking it hard.
I slipped the border and I jumped the train,
I'll do anything to get her back again.
Tracking down a runaway, down a runaway,
Down a runaway, I'm following the trail of broken hearts.
Who's that sneaking like an alley cat,
I've got the jump on you baby, can't do me like that,
I'm a love hound honey and I've got your scent,
I'm a wild crazy dog and I'm hell bent.
Tracking down a runaway, down a runaway,
Down a runaway, I'm following the trail of broken hearts.
No where to run, yeah, nowhere to hide,
No where to run, nowhere to hide, to hide, yeah, hey.
Well the midnight stars in the midnight sky,
They look down on me and they wonder why,
She may get far but she won't get away, huh,
I'm gonna run her to the ground every night and day.
Tracking down a runaway, tracking down a runaway,
Down a runaway, I'm following the trail of broken hearts.
Tracking down a runaway, down a runaway, yeah,
Down a runaway, yeah, yeah, down a runaway.
Look out baby, groove baby.
I see you baby, you won't get far, I got you on my mind,
I'm on your trail baby and love on my mind.
I'm tracking down a runaway, tracking down a runaway,
Down a runaway, following the trail of broken hearts.

Janie, Dont Take Your Love To Town

J. bon jovi
Sitting here just watching you sleep
Wish I could slip inside and be
In some technicolor dream
But the airs too thick for one of us to breathe
Im not fool enough to think
You couldnt live life without me
I didnt come this far to throw the towel in
I didnt fight this hard to walk away
If I aint smart enough to say Im sorry
Its just because the words got in the way
I remember how it used to be
I was you and you were me
We were more than just the same
Now these shoes dont fit, my skins too tight
When you want a kiss, I take a bite
Let your heart call up the cops, read me my rights
Last night I drak enough to drown
Raise a toast to your good looks and to my health
Look, we both know how much Ive let you down
Janie dont you take your love to town
Janie dont you take your love to town
Janie dont you take your love to town
If Ive got to beg, Ill beg, just dont walk away
Janie dont you take your love to town
You deserve a shooter, a saint
Someone to give it to you straight
To find the soul throught flesh and bone
My lifes a treasure, full of sunny weather
But its left me feeling cold
Now all you want to do is take me home
I hated you, the night you said you loved me
I hated you, cause I couldnt love myself
Im begging you now, baby please just hold me
I got one foot in, one foot off the ground
Janie dont you take your love to town
Janie dont you take your love to town
If Ive got to beg, Ill beg, just dont walk away
Janie dont you take your love to town
Sitting here while youre fast asleep
In the bathroom by the sink
Trying to write the right words down
I turn out the lights, close my eyes
There aint no prayers or kiss goodnight
What Ill forget to say tomorrow, Ill say now
Janie dont you take your love to town
Janie dont you take your love to town
Janie dont you take your love to town
If Ive got to beg, Ill beg, just dont walk away
Janie dont you take your love to town

Whos Your Daddy?

Here you come knockin on my door baby
Tell me what you got on your mind
I guess those college boys all went home for the summertime
And youre lookin right, lookin good, lookin like a woman should
So why is it so hard to find
A place to lay your pretty little head down once in a while
You run on a little tough luck baby
Dont you sweat it
Everything is waiting inside for you
You know I got it
Come and get it
Whos your daddy, whos your baby?
Whos your buddy, whos your friend?
And whos the one guy that you come runnin to
When your lovelife starts tumblin?
I got the money if you got the honey
Lets cut a deal lets make a plan
Whos your daddy, whos your baby?
Whos your buddy, whos your man?
You mightve run on a little tough luck baby
Dont you sweat it
Everything is waiting inside for you
You know I got it
So come and get it
Whos your daddy, whos your baby?
Whos your buddy, whos your man?

Lets Just Call It Love

Lets just do it...
Lets just call it love
Is it any wonder I feel beautiful tonight
cause the spell Im under makes the stars shine oh so bright
Is it affection cause I think I like it
Whatever youre doing to me theres no way to describe it
So
Chorus:
Lets just call it love
You call it what you want call it emotion
Lets just call it love
You can call it a feeling call it a notion
Lets just call it love
You can say that its right you can say that its wrong
But baby its just too damn good
Lets just call it love
Lets just call it love
Im caught up in the moment I could be anywhere at all
Aint nothin that can bring me down no cause baby I feel ten feet tall
Is it obsession cause though I like it
Its really taken a hold of me now and I dont want to fight it
No no so
(chorus)
You can call it anything anything at all
We can take it anywhere anywhere we want to
cause you and me baby its what we need
So lets see that sun weve got all night long
Lets go on and on (x 4)

When I Dream At Night

I have been in love
and been alone
I have traveled over many miles
to find a home
there's that little place
inside of me
that I never thought could
take control of everything
but now I just spend all my time
with anyone
who makes me feel
the way she does

[Chorus:]

'Cause I only feel alive
when I dream at night
even though she's not real
it's all right
'cause I only feel alive
when I dream at night
every move that she makes
holds my eyes
and I fall for her every time

I've so many things I want to say
I'll be ready when
the perfect moment
comes my way
I had never known
what's right for me
'til the night
she opened up my heart
and set it free
But now I just spend all my time
with anyone
who makes me feel
the way she does

[Repeat Chorus]

Now I just spend all my time
with anyone
who makes me feel
the way she does

[Repeat Chorus]

The Only One

He was always the toughest kid
But he never meant no harm
But looking back I could see his fate
Was tatooed on his arm
Walking throught the courtyard
Always there to be seen
He and little janie
Together they were the king and queen
He was the only one, who ever really knew
He was the only one, what can we do
He was the only one, he always showed us how
He was the only one, where is he now
Three years later at the bus stop
I know Ill never forget
He looked smaller in real ways
As he bummed a cigarette
And I asked him what hed been doing
And hows little janie anyway
Seems he was drunk
They had a fight
Janie got hurt and they took him away
He was the only one, who ever really knew
He was the only one, what can we do
He was the only one, he always showed us how
He was the only one, where is he now
I can still see him standing there
Just like yesterday
Leaning on a 56
Giving his secrets away
Is it any wonder
I feel a little lonely
Hes not just the only one
Hes the one and only
I heard about the accident
Theres not much left to say
He wandered out in the middl of the freeway
It must have happened right away
And I though about what a shame it was
Now that its all said and done
And it may sound strange
But even now
Hes still the only one
He was the only one, who ever really knew
He was the only one, what can we do
He was the only one, he always showed us how
He was the only one, where is he now

Runaway

Nobody said it would be easy
Nobody gives you guarantees
cos a heart can always be broken
And there can be no loving without tears
Runaway to a place where nobody knows
Runaway gotta let this feeling go
Runaway if I cant find love,
Im gonna runaway
Nobodys looking for perfection
How could they give it in return
But I told my heart to believe you
And you just gave your love to anyone
Runaway to a place where nobody knows
Runaway gotta let this feeling go
Runaway and I dont want to hurt anymore
Though my heart is always aching
If I cant find love,
Im gonna runaway

Run Away

Remember I'm the one who didn't have a lot to say
I was trying to find the courage, but I let you walk away
And I can't forget your face, y'know it haunts me all the time
And it seems to me you're living in a dream
Wish we could run away, we could be alone together
Far away, leave the world behind
Runaway, runaway, what I want to say is
You're a part of me, let me be a part of you
I want to tell you what I'm thinking, but the words get in the way
When I'm sitting here alone I find the things I meant to say
If I wrote them in a letter, would you read between the lines
Would you understand how much I really care
Wish we could run away, we could be alone together
Far away, leave the world behind
Runaway, runaway, what I want to say is
You're a part of me, let me be a part of you
[I] I love you
[Need] I need you
[You] Don't want to live without you
If I'm backward counting forward, would you help me realize
All the answers to the questions I've been asking with my eyes
I could hand you all the cliches, but you've heard them all before
And I want to say I love you in my own way
And could we run away, we could be alone together
Far away, leave the world behind
Runaway, runaway, what I want to say is
You're a part of me, let me be a part of you
Runaway, runaway, we could be alone together
Far away, leave the world behind
Runaway, I love you, I need you
What I want to say is, I want you
You're a, I love you, part of me, I need you
Let me be a part of you

Runaway Heart

(paul harrison)
Chorus:
Im rolling Im tumbling, Im falling apart
Cause Ill never, no Ill never find love
In his runaway heart
Hes a fast rushing river I cant get across
Like an ocean of sadness, oer which I am tossed
He never slows down, hes always ready to fly
And when I get next to you its just hello
Hello and goodbye
Repeat chorus
No rope can hold down
Hes not fit to be tied
Like the wildest of horses
Nobody can ride
Freedoms his distance
And the means to his end
So Im giving up trying
Cause Im just chasing, chasing the wind
Repeat chorus
In his runaway heart

Runaway Train

Its a corner that you turn
Its a lesson that you learn in time
Its a worry that you feel
Another scar that you conceal
From sight
Have I been away to long for me to say?
Have I been away to long for things to change?
From a runaway train
Caught beneath the wheels
Of a runaway train
Every moment of the day
I feel it crumbling away if i
I only have myself to blame
For all the cracks within the frame that I find
From a runaway train
Caught beneath the wheels
Of a runaway train
I know how it feels
To be a runaway train
Its alright, its ok, its alright

When ever you have gone away
I can't decide what I should eat
Without you I am incomplete
When you're back I have to say

When I'm sick and tired
You make me well
Any little thing
You do I can tell

Hold my breath till I turn blue

Try so hard to watch t.v.
It always ends up watching me
Dying to see you

Ohh, like nobody else
Nobody else, No-Oh No-Oh

I fade to black I turn to grey
Whenever you have gone away
When you cry it hurts like hell
And if you die I kill myself

Yeah, Oh, Yeah
When you make me feel bad
Any little thing on my mind
You do I can tell
You make me feel like...
Nobody else

Nobody make me feel like you do

Makes me feel...

Only Makes Me Laugh

I don't know why i feel this way
I don't know if it's right or wrong to laugh at misfortune
Darkness can never last too long
Every time i think i'm falling
And there's nobody around to hold me up
And it seems like the world has come to an end
I look for miles but not a face is friendly
Then suddenly a hole opens up in the ground
The bottom of the hole is a raging fire
I try to jump over but there's no way
The next thing i know, i'm going down
(chorus)
Does it hurt?
Oh, it really doesn't matter
Does it burn?
Oh, i don't feel a thing
Does it sting?
Oh, yeah, it really doesn't matter
Does it hurt?
Oh, i don't give a damn
When i find myself falling and i hit the bottom
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
When i go down the hole and i hit the bottom
The last time that i fell in love
The love was milk and honey but the milk turned sour
The woman became a monster
And everyone i knew had become a stranger
And the room went black and my luck was spent
The floor opened up, down i went
(repeat chorus)
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
Coming right back
Coming right back
'cause you can't keep me down
Can't keep me down
Oh, in the ground
Does it hurt?
Oh, it really doesn't matter
Does it burn?
Oh, i don't feel a thing
I don't mind just a little pain
Ooh, oh yeah
Whoa...
Remembering when i was a young man
How everything seemed to turn against me
I didn't know a soul, it was an alien place
The sun was covered by a dark cloud
And though i tried, i couldn't find a way to escape
The only way to go was straight down
(repeat chorus)
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
I don't know why i feel this way
I don't know if it's right or wrong to laugh at misfortune
Darkness can never last too long...
When you laugh in its face
When you laugh in its face
I don't know why i feel this way...

Ranaway Horses

Can't sleep tonight
I feel so shaken
Baby the wind has changed again
You come to me
Straight out of nowhere
Taking me where I've never been
Suddenly all of my fences have broken
I'm cutting the reins of my life
Wo Runaway horses
Take us thru the night
Runaway horses
ooo baby hold on tight
Racing thru the darkness
Trying to find a light
You and I on Runaway horses
Baby hold on tight
Stars guide us now
The whole world is sleeping
10 million dreams will soon be told
Out on this road
I'll share your secrets
I'm not afraid of where we'll go
I want you here with me
Pray for our destiny
Here on this mystery ride
Wo Runaway horses
Take us thru our life
Wo Runaway horses
oo oo baby hold on tight
Racing thru the darkness
Trying to find a light
You and I on Runaway horses
oo baby hold on tight
Open my eyes,there's so much light
I feel alive when I'm with you
With every end we'll begin again
