Song: Runaway Love

You see my baby up and hit the road
Where she’s going that’s what nobody knows
I need to find her before another man does
I wouldn’t want him to steal my love
I’m just trying to be cool, cool, cool
trying to be cool
Whatcha expect me to do
(ohh yeah)
I’m just trying to find, find, find;
sweet love of mine
I’m running out of time, where
is my runaway love?
Searching low and high,
know that I’m not giving up
I’d give it all up for us
never be enough
I won’t stop until I find my runaway love

See my baby really needs some help
Cause she can never stay at home by herself
She says she needs a little company
Even if she’s not always with me
(yeahh, ohh)
I’m just trying to find, find, find
I’m running out of time,
where is my runaway love?
Searching low and high,
know that I’m not giving up
I’d give it all up for us
never be enough
I won’t stop until I find
my runaway love

Why can’t I find (why can’t I find)
the love of mine
When you’re standing
in front of my face
Oh, I (Oh,I)
must be blind, how did I let you get away?
(Yeah, yeah)
I’m running out of time
where is my runaway love?

Searching low and high
know that I’m not giving up
I’d give it all up for us
never be enough
I won’t stop until I find
my runaway love
I’m running out of time
where is my runaway love?
Searching low and high
know that I’m not giving up
I’d give it all up for us
never be enough
I won’t stop until I find
my runaway love.
