Damn nice song! I went to Google 'sajc project work results' to see if my blog would be picked up but it didnt :/ saw another sajc blog so i just went there to check it out, realised was my friend's friend's blog. Then found this song on her blog!
Anyway she was appealing for someone to help find lyrics of this song cos it couldnt be found. so i went to the most reliable source i knew http://letssingit.com but they also didn't have! ran searches on various search engines but also dont have :S Decided to try to figure out lyrics myself.
Besides the mumbly mumbly bridge, i think i got the whole thing figured out. I can't figure out what on earth the singer is mumbling on the 2nd line! My best guess is 'But only if you smile to day light' but it doesnt make sense at all!
The rest should be accurate, figured out by listening many times and using logic (seeing if it makes sense) correct me if you think it's wrong =)
Prodigal - One Republic
We say goodbye i turn my back
run away run away so predictable
Not far from here you see me cry
like a bone like a bone i'm so breakable
I'll take everything from you
but you won't take anything
wont you
CHORUS:
Run away run away like a prodigal
dont you wait for me
dont you wait for me
So ashamed so ashamed
But i need you so
and you wait for me
and you wait for me
I'm on the road to who knows where
Look ahead, not behind i keep saying
There's no place to go where you're not there
On your rope i hold tight but it's fraying
I'll take everything from you
but you wont take anything
wont you
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Everybody wants to be right
-indecipherable mumbling-
i keep trying to find my way back
my way back
CHORUS,
Run away run away
run away from you
From you from you from you
