Lyrics

Father father don't lecture me
We all need a little sympathy
Hush now hush now and hold me close
A little tenderness is what I need the most

I took a ride on a runaway dream
Some times it left me breathless
Sometimes it made me scream

Lyrics continue below...

And I was amazed by the things she said
(Oooh oooh oooooh)
And I was amazed by the life she led
(Oooh oooh oooooh)
And I was in deep way over my head
(Oooh oooh oooooh)
And I was asleep
(Oooh oooh oooooh)

Father father just let it be
There's no use in trying to argue with me
Hear me hear me through these tears
Tell me tell me that my conscience is clear

I gave it all but the shirt on my back
And I'd have given that if she'd have come back
I gave it all with nothing in return
You dance with the fire you'll always get burned

And I was amazed by the things she said
(Oooh oooh oooooh)
And I was amazed by the life she led
(Oooh oooh oooooh)
And I was in deep way over my head
(Oooh oooh oooooh)
And I was asleep the night she left my bed
(Oooh oooh oooooh)

I took a ride on a runaway dream
She left me breathless
She made me scream

And I was amazed by the things she said
(Oooh oooh oooooh)
And I was amazed by the life she led
(Oooh oooh oooooh)
And I was in deep way over my head
(Oooh oooh oooooh)
And I was asleep the night she left my bed
(Oooh oooh oooooh)
And I waited
(I waited)
And I waited
(I waited)
And I waited
(I waited)
Yeah and I waited
(I waited)
And I waited
(I waited)
And I waited
(I waited)
And I waited
(I waited))
And I waited
(I waited)
