Starr, Ringo - Runaways Lyrics






Outside there's a runaway,
The lights go down, the world goes rushing in.
Neon light takes the light of day,
Stars like dust start falling.

Inside there's a loneliness,
The demon tries to charm you with his smile.
No time to dream or rest,
In the caves of steel, faces are changing.

They're the runaways,
They're the runaways,
Children of the damned.
They're the runaways,
Running for their life, faster than they can.
They're the runaways.

On the street the traffic dies,
The break of day, it always comes too soon.
Running out of reasons why
All your life you blamed it on the moon.

Look out for the danger signs,
You're stealing time but you know you'll never win.
Another border line,
In the caves of steel, faces are changing.

They're the runaways,
Children of the night.
They're the runaways,
Running for your life, faster than you can.
They're the runaways, run, run, runaways.

Nightmares chase the dreams away,
The cold night reflects the way you feel.
It's just another town,
It's just one more night to kill.

All the streets are empty now,
Like the wolf, you walk this night alone.
And in some other world,
In the caves of steel, faces are changing.

They're the runaways, (they're the runaways)
(run, run, run)
They're the runaways, (they're they runaways)
Children of the night.
They're the runaways, (run, run, run, run away)
Running for your life, faster than you can.
They're the runaways. (run, run, run, run away)
Children of the damned.
They're the runaways, (they're the runaways)
Running for your life, (faster than they can)
They're the runaways. (run, run, runaways)
They're the runaways, (they're the runaways)
(children of the night)
They're the runaways. (they're the runaways)
(running for their life, faster than they can)
(they're the runaways)
(run, run, run, run away)
Run.

  1. M.... G....

    This song. In a car. Night. Route.

  2. L.... L....

    Ring o has the most at ease voice so soothing and cheery the cutest one

  3. d.... ....

    The song was written with Johnny Warman and he is another great artist

  4. T.... ....

    Great song!:)

  5. P.... ....

    His voice sounds better than Bowie.

  6. �.... �....

    yeap the early 90s were cool in many ways but  i was a preteen and i was miserable
    i m 36 still miserable i dont think the past matters and i dont like nostalgia
    when something has passed, there is no more
    but this cd is still out there
    and ringo still makes great music that doesnt make it in the charts alongside beyonce, britney, rap music etc but really who cares about the charts anymore?
    in the internet, theres something for everyone
    anyways, i seriously doubt ringo is the kind of man who looks back
    one of the many reasons i love him!

  7. T.... ....

    Very David Bowie-ish, To My Ear.

  8. l.... ....

    I agree. 1992 was an excellent vintage for music. I just meant that when this brilliant Ringo Starr LP was released that year, it went unfairly unnoticed. However, it deserves to be heard and it's definitive proof that all members of the Beatles released successful solo albums.

  9. n.... ....

    Hey ! I loved Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Screaming Trees & I LOVED this LP at the same time 1992 was a brilliant year..Time Takes Time was part of it..

  10. 5.... ....

    Ringo maravilhoso!

  11. R.... ....

    RINGo RULES

  12. F.... J....

    My favourite Ringo's album, so far!

  13. l.... ....

    @24rusguy I agree with you. Time Takes Time is one of his finest solo albums. Shame in 1992, world was more interested in grunge!

  14. A.... ....

    This song should dismiss those who would question Ringo's talent as a drummer. He is relentless on this song.
