The Clarks - The Runaway lyrics

She swore by the deep long lines on her face cut like a badge of life Worn by tracks and trials and alone somehow that didn't seem right Somehow that didn't seem right She lived for… Sins of a better day Girl you're a runaway Rode hard torn and frayed When you're a runaway Stood for something and I stood too long I don't know when to quit Got a conscience on hold and the road reels me in I don't know where I fit I don't know where I fit She dreamed of Sins of a better day Girl you're a runaway Rode hard torn and frayed When you're a runaway Face full of wind her mysteries survive I want to ride that wave It keeps me running it keeps me high last words I heard her say She drown in Sins of a better day Girl you're a runaway Rode hard torn and frayed When you're a runaway
