Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw you standing and I felt your rage
Like a dark cloud in a crowded stage
You were talking through the smoke in your fantasy
I know you, girl, I know what to believe
[Verse 2]
Maybe things ain't been so good at home
And the people that you love never cared at all
You wanna run away, don't care where you go
You wanna run away, run away, that's all you know
[Verse 3]
Believe it's alright to fantasize
And say the words you think will satisfy me
But you know better than that
'Cause you know what's a lie
[Verse 4]
You're living in dreamtime, baby (You wanna run away)
It's time to wake up
You're living on dreamtime, baby (You wanna run away)
It's time to shape up
[Verse 5]
In your dream, it's overcast
Rain comes down movin' your way fast
You wanna run away, don't care where you go
(You wanna run away) Run away, that's all you know
[Verse 6]
You turn a corner and you see a door
Walk on through, throw yourself on the floor
Oh, when you're lookin' up, it's no surprise
Standing there is a man with movie star eyes
[Verse 7]
You think he's gonna take care of you
The man with the plan that'll see you through
And I say there ain't no way
'Cause I know he's a lie
[Verse 8]
You're living in dreamtime, baby (You wanna run away)
It's time to wake up
You're living on dreamtime, baby (You wanna run away)
It's time to shape up, shape up
You're living on dreamtime (You wanna run away)
You're living on dreamtime, baby (You wanna run away)
Wanna run away, wanna run away
[Verse 9]
I know
I say
[Verse 10]
You're living in dreamtime, baby (You wanna run away)
Shape up
You're living on dreamtime, baby (You wanna run away)
It's time to wake up
[Verse 11]
I never saw anybody fall apart so fast
You're living in the dreamtime, know it ain't gonna last
Never saw anybody think she's so right and be so wrong
Living in dreamtime, hard to carry on, girl
[Verse 12]
(Dreamtime) You wanna run away
Run away, baby
(Dreamtime) You wanna run away
(Dreamtime) Run away
[Verse 13]
(Dreamtime) I never saw anybody fall apart so fast
Hope it don't last
(Dreamtime) Never saw anybody think she's so right
Be so wrong (You wanna run away)
(Run away, baby) Dreamtime, hard to carry on
(Dreamtime) Dreamtime, dreamtime
(You wanna run away)
(Run away, baby)
(Dreamtime)
(You wanna run away) Dreamtime
