She was born in a town on the border,
Raised for the fourth of July,
She knew within  
She didn’t  fit in
Don't know why.

She didn’t go looking for trouble,
But trouble was always round,
It was always the same,
No-one to blame
Was what she always found.

Runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that  you’re safe in your own space.

She moved to a part of the country,
That soon didn’t want her around,
It wasn’t long before she’s moving on
Southern-bound, from town to town to town.

Met a young man by the roadside,
She just couldn’t run anymore,
He listened to all that she said
That no-one ever listened to before.

Runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that you’re safe in your own space,
But if the demons that you are running from are strong,
Then in your head you’ll find that they’ll follow on and on.

She thought about all he had shown her,
And sensing her journey’s end,
She realised the safest place
Is where you finally find a friend.

So don’t runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that  you’re safe in your own space.
