About Runaway

"Runaway" is a Bon Jovi song, written in 1980 and originally recorded in 1981 for the so called "Power Station Demos". The recordings were primarily done by an ensemble simply known as Jon Bongiovi & The Rest. Lead guitar on the original 1980's track was Bon Jovi's neighbour, Dave Sabo (a.k.a. The Snake), who would later form the group Skid Row. One night after a show, Richie Sambora found Bon Jovi backstage and told him that he should be the guitarist. .

Runaway Lyrics

[00:19.75] On the street where you live girls
[00:21.45] Talk about their social lives
[00:25.03] They're made of lipstick, plastic, and paint
[00:27.38] A touch of sable in their eyes
[00:31.44] (All your life) all your life all you've asked
[00:34.00] When's your daddy gonna talk to you
[00:37.52] But you were living in another world
[00:39.94] Tryin' to get your message through
[00:44.18] No one heard a single word you said
[00:50.15] They should have seen it in your eyes
[00:53.23] What was going around your head
[00:56.93] Oh, she's a little runaway
[01:03.08] Daddy's girl learned fast
[01:05.15] All those things he couldn't say
[01:09.35] Oh, she's a little runaway
[01:16.17] Take a line every night
[01:18.22] Guaranteed to blow your mind
[01:22.01] I see you out on the streets
[01:24.31] Calling for a wild time
[01:28.24] So you sit home alone
[01:30.46] Cause there's nothing left that you can do
[01:34.32] There's only pictures hung in the shadows
[01:36.82] Left there to look at you
[01:41.33] You know she likes the lights at nights
[01:44.01] On the neon broadway signs
[01:46.87] She don't really mind
[01:50.12] It's only love she hoped to find
[01:54.23] Oh, she's a little runaway
[01:59.63] Daddy's girl learned fast
[02:02.08] All those things he couldn't say
[02:06.25] Oh, she's a little runaway
[02:13.23]
[02:43.00] No one heard a single word you said
[02:48.24] They should have seen it in your eyes
[02:51.49] What was going around your head
[02:55.77] Oh, she's a little runaway
[03:01.18] Daddy's girl learned fast
[03:03.48] All those things he couldn't say
[03:07.60] Oh, she's a little runaway
[03:13.93] Daddy's girl learned fast
[03:15.97] Now she works the night away
[03:20.56] Oh, she's a little runaway
[03:26.36] Daddy's girl learned fast
[03:28.61] All those things he couldn't say
[03:32.84] Oh, she's a little runaway
[03:39.02] Daddy's girl learned fast
[03:41.17] Now she works the night away
[03:42.86]
