Runaway

I can see it in your eyes, that you're gonna run

You're gonna run

And I can hear it in the way that you speak to Me,

That you're gonna leave

So as you slip away, I will say

As you pack your things, I will sing

Even if you run away from Me

Over the mountains, through the valleys

I will not rest, but search east and west to bring you back with Me

Even if you sail away from Me

Across the oceans and the seas

I will move again, like the mighty wind, and blow you back to Me

I'm gonna move again, like the mighty wind, and blow you back to Me

I have seen this all before, it is all too familiar

But you will never see the bottom of My storehouses of love

So as you use the night to make your flight,

No choice that you will make, or path you take will change My mind

Even if one day you decide, you will find somewhere else to hide

I will walk your way, and call your name, and wait for your reply

Even if you make up in your mind, you don't want to be by My side

I will leave behind 99, oh that you'd be mine

I'm gonna leave behind 99, oh that you'd be mine

Even if you stomp and scream and huff, tell Me that I'm not good enough

I'll take every swing and every blow, until you know My love

Even if you beat upon My chest, tell Me that you don't understand

I will love you and teach you to love Me again

I'm gonna love you and teach you to love Me again
