Runaway Lyrics by The Afters

Light Up the Sky

2010

Hear your voice on the phone
And my heart just stopped
When you said you're not going home
Where are you, are you safe?
Are you trying to escape
From what you can't undo
Hoping that the world forgets you
But I can't, no, I won't forget you
I know you're out there tonight
Looking for somewhere to hide
Hey, hey, hey
You don't have to run away
You're hanging over the edge
It's not too late to look back
Hey, hey, hey
You don't have to runaway
Everywhere that you turn
Somehow every face
Is another bridge that you burn
So you think you can't stay
If you could find another life
In another place
And hope the world forgets your name
But I can't, no, I won't forget you
I know you're out there tonight
Looking for somewhere to hide
Hey, hey, hey
You don't have to run away
You're hanging over the edge
It's not too late to look back
Hey, hey, hey
You don't have to runaway
You think you've lost it all
And there's nothing left of you
There's nowhere you could fall
Where love won't catch you
Love won't catch you
Love will catch you
Love will catch you
Love will catch you
I know you're out there tonight
Looking for somewhere to hide
Hey, hey, hey
You don't have to run away
You're hanging over the edge
It's not too late to look back
Hey, hey, hey
You don't have to runaway
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
You don't have to runaway
You think you've lost it all
You think you've lost it all
You don't have to runaway
You don't have to runaway
You don't have to runaway
