When I was twelve I ran away
Confident I'd be okay
I got lost and by mistake
I returned home the very same day
I wanted it
I went for it
I wanted it
I went for it
Once I was on my own
I tried a different way
Through wasteful garbage cans
Abandoned ash trays
I wanted to roam, to find a place to stay
Nothing makes you miss a home
More than running away
I wanted it
I went for it
I wanted it
I went for it
I went for it
I learned from it
I took a chance
It was so worth it
I wanted it
I went for it
I wanted it
I went for it
I went for it
I learned from it
I took a chance
It was so worth it
