Dawson Tonight it's cold and the rain is falling This city's cold and dark just like a tomb A year ago I wished I had a million But tonight I wish that I could leave this room Chorus But you know I'll come runnin' back to you Anytime, anyplace, from anywhere And if you should lose the way Please don't hesitate to say 'Cause ya know i'll come runnin' back to you When I left home I was so eager It seemed like all the world was at my door
Now the spark is out and it's just raining I haven't seen you in a year or more [chorus] Now if I had been working like I should have By tonight I could've saved the fare But Lord I've gone, yes, and drunk up every penny And it's a thousand miles from here to there [chorus] Yes if you should lose the way Please don't hesitate to say 'Cause ya know i'll come runnin' back to you
