Run Away

Meets her friends by the liquor store Bon jovi is playing across town Just a few hours and she will be back She thinks its nothing wrong Gets a guy to buy beers for them Cause they we all underage They get in his car for a ride While the opening act performs on stage She ask for a cigarette And gives he gives her alight Drinking the beers and laughing In the middle of the night She thinks of her little brother Maybe he’s fast asleep in a dream She knows she lied to him but Tomorrow she will take him for ice cream You said that you were just going out To get a pack of cigarette But you never did come back Sister did you forget And I waited all night for you Lay in bed with my telephone Wondering were you are But you never comeback home Have you forgotten your little brother? A million times I dial your number Have you forgotten me, my sister? Is that why you never want to answer Mama cries all the time She don’t know why you run away If you can see how she’s hurting I know you would come back home today Its two weeks since you been gone Mama’s putting up your pictures on every wall Everyday praying for a miracle Hoping that some one will call And she talks to daddy today First time since the divorce And he will be here tomorrow morning He said we will find you at all cost Then he looks out the window And sees the police cars arrive And his mother holds her head and cries For they have found her alive She was found by passer by Unconscious in the drain She wakes after two weeks in the hospital They never r found her friends again Runaways are innocent minds And for a moment lack of judgment Some are lucky to make back home And for some it can be very detriment
