Mike Oldfield - Runaway Son Lyrics
Good sister, wont you let me in?Im in need of some warmth and shelter.Its a hard luck story, dont know where to begin.Ive been riding on lifes helter-skelter.Save me, holy mother, please, save me!I got a heart of gold.[ chorus 1 ]And for your love Id go hungry and thirsty.I need a saviour and youre the one.I throw myself into the arms of mercy.Theres still hope for the runaway son.My good father, he say to me:Better come back to your senses.Theres an empty bottle lying on the floorAnd its undermined your defences.Save me, holy mother, please, save me!I got a heart of gold.[ repeat chorus 1 ][ repeat chorus 1 ]Good brother, show me how to get home.Ive been walking in the backyard of satan.Im so stubborn that Ill never give in,But now my hearts cold and aching.Save me, holy mother, please, save me!I got a heart of gold.[ chorus 2 ]And for your love Id go hungry and thirsty.I need a saviour and youre the one.I throw myself into the arms of mercy.Salvation for the runaway son.Save me, holy mother, please, save me!I got a heart of gold.[ repeat chorus 1 ][ repeat chorus 2 ]
