Runaround Lyrics by The Roosevelts

The Greatest Thing You’ll Ever Learn

2016

[Verse 1]
Why’d you go
Why’d you leave
You said that I was everything that you need
The door is locked
I changed the key
You wanted freedom, well I’m setting you free

[Chorus]
Cause I am on my way
I am on my way
Not another runaround
Not another runaround
On my way
I am on my way
So pack up and leave this town
I’m not another runaround

[Verse 1]
A broken heart
Is hard to take
When you still love the one that caused it to break
My lonely soul
May never mend
But I won’t ever let you do this again

[Chorus]
Cause I am on my way
I am on my way
Not another runaround
Not another runaround
On my way
I am on my way
So pack up and leave this town
I’m not another runaround

Don’t you come around here I can’t take it anymore
Every time you do I end up right back on the floor

The deed is done
It’s finally through
There’s only one thing left for me to tell you

[Chorus]
Cause I am on my way
I am on my way
Not another runaround
Not another runaround
On my way
I am on my way
So pack up and leave this town
I’m not another runaround
