jack rootes - runaway lyrics

[verse 1]

h-llo, my love
i’m so sorry at this hour i had to wake you up
but i just called you to let you know i’m on my way
i’ve been excited to be with you throughout yesterday
can’t wait until the moment we meet face to face
i’ve left a little letter for my parents back at my place
left my mobile phone at home so that they can’t track me
but they are the reason that i’m feeling far from happy
the news and the police will only report me missing
really, i’m off somewhere with you hugging and kissing
and deep down, i pray my location to them’s a mystery
if they find out where i am, they’ll drag me back to misery

all they do is talk about you like you’re a catfish
and that if i want to be with you, i’m taking the p-ss
they see me talking to you and act like it’s an eyesore
and just earlier, they said i can’t talk to you anymore!
but what the f-ck do they know?
your voice is heavenly, that’s why i’m at this payphone
so i waited ’till they were fast asleep, that was my mark
to hop out of bed, out the house and into the dark
i’ve got a bit of money in my little orange wallet
some bags with my belongings and my car that’s foreign
driving through the roads by only the glow of the moon
i love you sweetheart and i hope to see you soon

[hook]

i’m giving you a night call to tell you how i feel
i’m gonna tell you something you don’t want to hear
i’m gonna show you where it’s dark, but have no fear
i’m giving you a night call to tell you how i feel

[verse 2]

i’ve been so scared since my son disappeared
as a parent it’s a kidnapping that i’ve feared
i walked into his room, as calm as the ocean
to find his bed empty and his window wide open!
i’ve read his note and all i have are mixed feelings
like lil wayne, my worries are having no ceilings!
if he wanted to talk on facebook, then that’s fine
but i told him not to talk to that person online!
he doesn’t know if that person is really honest
even though he swears that person made a promise
but the thing with promises is that they get broken
now i’m crying in this room, stumbling over words spoken!

maybe this is my fault
maybe i shouldn’t have kept him shut up like a bank vault
i mean, my son hasn’t been gone for too long
but now i’m asking myself where did i go wrong?
i’ve said this before, but i’m so f-cking scared
that he’ll be found dead in a ditch somewhere
i told him if he planned to see her, that he was insane!
but now i’m anxious that i’ll never see him again
every time the door knocks, i always hold my breath
i fear the police, telling me my son’s been found dead
he doesn’t know the route to her, who knows where he’ll roam
for f-ck’s sake son, i beg you, please come back home!

[hook]

[verse 3]

hey jack, so i’ve thought about your phone call
and i’ve got second thoughts with the drama and all
your parents have been worried sick since you went missing
you should go back and this is not me tripping
i agree with your parents not talking to me
we’ll have the world in our hair like lice and fleas
plus, where will we both go to avoid capture?
really, your plan’s as stable as a bone fracture
mate please! we barely know each other!
think about your step sister, brother, father and mother!
i know we talk to each other like we’re sacred treasure
but running away from home is a rather extreme measure

besides you’re 21, i’m at least 3 years younger!
maybe it was dumb of me to give you my number
enough drama from this has already bubbled
i beg you please, don’t add any more trouble!
forget about me! you’ve got your own life to grow!
you said that if you loved me, you’d let me go!
and really, i’m not talking about pounds and pence
but i want to smack you, just to give some common sense!
it’s not that i hate you now, that’s not the case
it’s because i care about you, so end this chase!
we can still be friends though, i’m telling you the truth
but really, your family needs you more than i do

[hook]
