Runaway is about a young girl who escapes her neglectful and abusive parents/father to live alone, doing anything she can to survive, but when she ran away, she began to feel more alone than ever. Jon Bon Jovi has said this song was inspired by his own experience of taking greyhound buses often and...
[Verse 1]
On the street where you live girls talk about their social lives
They're made of lipstick, plastic and paint, a touch of sable in their eyes
(All your life) All your life all you've asked when's your daddy gonna talk to you
But you was living in another world trying to get your message through
[Pre-Chorus]
No one heard a single word you said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going around your head
[Chorus]
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things she couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway
[Verse 2]
Take a line every night guaranteed to blow your mind
I see you out on the streets, calling for a wild time
So you sit home alone cause there's nothing left that you can do
There's only pictures hung in the shadows left there to look at you
You know she likes the lights at night on the neon Broadway signs
She don't really mind, it's only love she hoped to find
[Chorus]
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things she couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
No one heard a single word you said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going around your head
[Chorus]
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things she couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy’s girl learned fast
Now she works the night away
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things she couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy’s girl learned fast
Now she works the night away
Ooh, she's a little runaway
