Running from some kind of disaster in your heart

They say you're too young to know the feeling

But still your head is reeling from the pain

Where you gonna run to, where you gonna hide?

Yeah, your momma and daddy don't know you,

While everybody's trying to show you

Why you're wrong

So you're packing your bags and leaving

Thinking some day you'll get even with them all

Then you're out on your own for the first time,

Looking back for the last time, how do you feel?

Where you gonna run to, where you gonna hide?

What'll you do just to keep you alive?



Where you going to my runaway?

Where you gonna run to, where you gonna run and hide

Will you find the answers, runaway?

In the dark of the night

Where there's no one to hold your hand



Out in the streets, all alone and feeling

Just like you're never going home

Then it makes you start remembering,

Who you are and where you've been my friend

Then you watch your sweet-talking Johnny dance

He'll give you the world just to get in your pants

You think he's in love

Where you gonna run to, where you gonna hide?

What'll you do just to keep you alive?



Where you going to my runaway?

Where you gonna run to, where you gonna run and hide

Will you find the answers, runaway?

In the dark of the night

Where there's no one to hold your hand



Where you going to my runaway?

Where you gonna run to, where you run and hide

Will you find the answers, runaway?

In the dark of the night

Where there's no one to hold your hand

In the dark of the night

In the dark of the night
