I Ran All The Way Home

Never mind the rain

Just be thankful that you're here

On holiday

Put your coat on, go and play

Here's some money for today

Don't talk to anyone

Or I'll send you to bed

Without any food

And I'll skin you alive

You know what I'll do

Don't you know that I love you?

Don't you know that I love you?

Collecting driftwood on a beach

Build it up like fire

Send a message to a passing ship

'Come and rescue me

Come and take me somewhere else

Where the weather's good'

Now the tide's coming in

And it's starting to rain

But I'll be back tomorrow

And I'll try once again

I ran all the way home

I ran all the way home

I just want to go home

The novelty has worn off

We are not amused anymore

If you really love me

You'll let me go home

I just want to escape

I'm stuck in a Kodak moment

With people in the future?

If you really love me

Won't you let me go home?

I just want to go home

I ran all the way home

Met a couple on the beach

Said they'd lost a child like me

Several years ago

Said I reminded them

Of the way she might have looked

They had a photograph

They invited me back

To look at her room

I said maybe tomorrow

But I've got to go soon

I ran all the way home

I ran all the way home

I just want to go escape

Don't want to be brave

Don't ever want to go back there again

If you really love me

You'll let me go home

I ran all the way home

I know that you love me

You're taking care of me

I'm frightened, I'm tired

(If you really love me)
