Just arrived in town, hard way
No money and no one who knows my name
Dingy room just off the freeway
Another night, a different place
But one thing stays the same

I'm a runaway man
Keep on changing my plans
Seems whatever I do
There's no home without you
I've done all that I can
And I know what I am
Just a runaway man

Never stay too long in one place
The memories catch up with me too fast
Sooner picture only your face
And all the times I held you close
In hopes that it would last

I'm a runaway man
Keep on changing my plans
Seems whatever I do
There's no home without you
I've done all that I can
And I know what I am
Just a runaway man

I've been hung up girl on many things
So thank God I was managed to get free
But you became a habit
That I didn't want to break
Losing you, girl
Was much more than I could take

I'm a runaway man
Keep on changing my plans
Seems whatever I do
There's no home without you
I've done all that I can
And I know what I am
Just a runaway man

I'm a runaway man
Keep on changing my plans
Seems whatever I do
There's no home without you
I've done all that I can
And I know what I am
Just a runaway man
