Runaway
i want to, you’ve got me
but i know how you are
the daylight is breaking
we wont get that far
you gotta hold on to me tight
we gotta know this take all night
one, two everybody runaway
you, me we gotta go
one, two everybody runaway
please don’t let me go
you're standing, i’m moving
and helpless in your arms
the silence is stinging
with no more warning signs
you gotta hold on to me tight
we gotta know this will take all night
one, two everybody runaway
you, me we gotta go
one, two everybody runaway
please don’t let me go
it wont be long
running after you
it won't be long
i won't take long
running after you
one, two everybody runaway
you, me we gotta go
one, two everybody runaway
please don’t let me go

this is another van gem.
i remember writing this one.
we started this one in maplewwod, nj. it was my pregnant trip. we started there and let it be for a few months.
then van came back to l.a. and was playing staples that night. we were at the downtown standard hotel where he was staying.
this chorus came out quick there.
we both were pleasantly surprised and i love what van envisioned with it.
