Runaway Heart Lyrics

They met at the station
on the outskirts of town
she was headed to school
he was nowhere bound

he needed directions
she gave him a smile
they struck a conversation
that lasted for miles

they hardly knew each other
when they both realized
they saw their own future in each other's eyes

IN THE MIDDLE of THE NIGHT
LOST IN THE DARK
THEY FOUND WHAT THEY NEEDED
A BRAND NEW START
HEAD OVER HEELS INTO SOMETHING
LED ONLY BY A SPARK
THERE'S NOTHING THAT CAN STOP
A RUNAWAY HEART

she called her Daddy long distance
when the sun came up
told him what had happened
heard him drop his coffee cup
hung up a cried a little
no longer Daddy's little girl
held the hand of her first love and headed out into the world They didn't know where they were going
But they knew from now on
they'd never be without
each other-never be alone

REPEAT CHORUS
IN THE MIDDLE of THE NIGHT
LOST IN THE DARK
THEY FOUND WHAT THEY NEEDED
A BRAND NEW START
HEAD OVER HEELS INTO SOMETHING
LED ONLY BY A SPARK
THERE'S NOTHING THAT CAN STOP
A RUNAWAY HEART

SOLO

...Now,twenty-some years later
she waits by the phone
her daughter calls from the station
says she's found a love of her own...

IN THE MIDDLE of THE NIGHT
LOST IN THE DARK
THEY FOUND WHAT THEY NEEDED
A BRAND NEW START
HEAD OVER HEELS INTO SOMETHING
LED ONLY BY A SPARK
THERE'S NOTHING THAT CAN STOP
A RUNAWAY HEART
