Runaway - Keziah Jones

I am more than you know, street lights and open roads

I am more than a face, stuck living in one place

So call me California

Call me what you will

Cause I am bigger than this place

And so far from alone

I don’t believe in your hate, cause these scars are gonna fade

So pour me out like water, and soak me up like rain

Like a runaway

Spend these nights counting stars

Like a runaway

And maybe I could call this home tonight

Like a runaway

I whisper all these secrets, to a blank page on a line

Said we don’t speak like lovers, and my words are dripping with wine

So call me California

Call me what you will

Cause I am bigger than this place

And so far from alone

Like a runaway

Spend these nights counting stars

Like a runaway

And maybe I could call this home tonight

Like a runaway

When burning bridges won’t come down

Like symphonies without a sound

I spend these nights counting stars

And wonder if there’s hope for me out there

Like a runaway

Spend these nights counting stars

Like a runaway

And maybe I could call this home tonight
