My Runaway
(David A. Thompson | Woody Overtones Music, ASCAP)

I see you on a moonlit road
I dream you travel for many years
Searching out the wonder
Wondering if you can hide your fear
Of the great unknown

The road has lies disguised as friends
You learn that friends can break your heart
But time can fix it
Time heals two things torn apart
I tell myself again and again

'Cause I've been thinking of you in much more than only dreams
Though it hurts to think I let you wave goodbye
But I'm right there beside you in every way except for real
And I knew your heart could barely wait to fly
'Cause you're my runaway

I know that one day you'll come home
I know it's much too soon to say
But I'm still wishing
Wishing on the stars that light your way
I don't have long to go

I see you on that moonlit road
I dream you're coming back to me
Tired but stronger
Stronger than I ever hoped you'd be
But still the one I know

'Cause I've been thinking of you in much more than only dreams
Though it hurts to think I let you wave goodbye
But I'm right there beside you in every way except for real
And I knew your heart could barely wait to fly
