Runaway Lover

Lyrics Print lyrics

You lost your reputation on a woman

You didn't understand or care to know

You get your education from your lovers

But now there's just no place for you to go

 

It doesn't pay

To be a runaway lover

It doesn't pay

To give away what you lack

You'll never get your money back

 

You're set adrift with no direction

Just like a ship that's lost at sea

You don't care where you drop your anchor

Make sure it doesn't land on me

 

It doesn't pay

To be a runaway lover

It doesn't pay

To give away what you lack

You'll never get your money back

 

It doesn't pay

To be a runaway lover

It doesn't pay

To give away what you lack

You'll never get your money back

(It doesn't pay, doesn't pay, doesn't pay,...)

 

Walking around on a cloud

'Cause every girl you meet just trips on you

Saying your name out loud

I guess you met your match

Now what will you do

 

Uh uh, no way

 

It doesn't pay

To be a runaway lover

It doesn't pay

To give away what you lack

You'll never get your money back

 

It doesn't pay

To be a runaway lover

It doesn't pay

To give away what you lack

You'll never get your money back

 

Walking around on a cloud

'Cause every girl you meet just trips on you

Saying your name out loud

I guess you met your match

Now what will you do

 

It doesn't pay

It doesn't pay

It doesn't pay

To give your heart away

To a runaway lover

 

Uh uh, no way

Uh uh, no way

Uh uh, no way

Song

This song moves away from the deep, spiritual lyrics that were remarkable for Ray Of Light, but instead opts for a heavy dancefloor track. Madonna performed it during her gigs at the Roseland Ballroom and the Brixton Academy in November 2000, but nixed the song from her Drowned World Tour.
