Runaway Lyrics

Artist: Del Shannon
Album: Runaway

As I walk along,
I wonder what went wrong,
With our love, a love that was so strong.
And as I still walk on,
I think of the things we've done
Together, a-while our hearts were young.

I'm a-walkin' in the rain,
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain,
Wishin' you were here by me,
To end this misery
And I wonder--
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder,
Why,
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away,
Yes, and I wonder,
A-where she will stay-ay,
My little runaway,
Run, run, run, run, runaway.

I'm a-walkin' in the rain,
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain,
Wishin' you were here by me,
To end this misery
And I wonder--
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder,
Why,
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away,
Yes, and I wonder,
A-where she will stay-ay,
My little runaway,
Run, run, run, run, runaway.
Run, run, run, run, runaway.
Run, run, run, run, runaway.

Del ran away with a .22 in Feb 1990. But he left behind his magical lyrics for us to enjoy.

My father used to sing this song to me when I was younger. It's a cherished memory, and to always have that moment with me, I tattoo'd "Runaway" on my foot.

Ja! Es ist fein!
by iamjohngalt on 5/26/2012 1:40am
The original Runaway is an amazing recording and made music history. It has the first use of a synthisizer in record history, a home made one built by keyboardist, Max Crook. Del Shannon's falsetto vocals soared and Max's keyboard riff is one of the most memorable on record.
by walter on 6/18/2012 4:26pm
sis loved this song and singer the start of my love of music.
by syarif on 9/6/2012 6:58pm

Downloaded Radiorage to listen to song. Never got to. The icon only redirects to the download page. The first time should download. After that clicking should produce the song!!!! Talk of your Radiorage. I'm there. I want to blow something up.

Outstanding, ahead of its time, and timeless. From the middle of nowhere in Michigan, Del Shannon burst forth and enlivened the universe!
