Now she was only 17 when she ran away She had to get away saying that she couldn’t stay Packed a bag on Saturday and then she stole away Into the night trying to get so far away But where you gonna go girl? What you gonna do girl? You can’t run from yourself it catch up to you Why you looking for someone to be loving you When He’s right here right above you?
Chorus Where you gonna go? (Where you gonna go?) Where you going to (Where you going to?) Where you gonna go, oh, oh From the One that’s loving you (You can’t run from yourself no more)
Big city she a little girl just on the street Looking for love up in the arms of every man she meets And every other night she just cries herself asleep Will she find relief will she ever find her peace But where you gonna go girl What you gonna do girl You can’t run from yourself it catch up to you Why you looking for someone to be loving you When He’s right here right above you
Chorus
It’s 2 am it’s just another day just once again She want to go home but she don’t know just where it is Sick of what she does sick of life and how she lives On the run from the Father and the love He gives Where you gonna go girl? What you gonna do girl? You can’t run from yourself it catch up to you Why you looking for someone to be loving you When He’s right here right above you?
How long how long will you run girl? You can’t run no place else no more How long will you run girl? You can’t run no place else no more
