New Amsterdams, The – Girl, Why’d You Run Away?

she’s driving oh so very fast

trying to get away from her past

i don’t think she’ll escape

so girl, why’d you run away?

you look so afraid

i hope that it’s not of me

you can’t sit still for very long

i turned to look but you were gone

i think that i’ll stay some more

so girl, why’d you run away?

you look so afraid

i hope that it’s not of me

now that you’re gone

i wonder what

i could have said to you

i wish i knew

you promised me that

so girl, why’d you run away?

you look so afraid

i hope that it’s not of me

she’s driving oh so very fast

trying to get away from her past

i don’t think she’ll escape

so girl, why’d you run away

you look so afraid

i hope that it’s not of me
