Runaway Son |
| Good sister, won’t you let me in? |
| I’m in need of some warmth and shelter |
| It’s a hard luck story, don’t know where to begin |
| I’ve been riding on life’s helter-skelter |
| Save me, Holy Mother, please, save me! |
| I got a heart of gold |
| And for your love I’d go hungry and thirsty |
| I need a saviour and you’re the one |
| I throw myself into the arms of mercy |
| There’s still hope for the runaway son |
| My good father, he say to me: |
| «Better come back to your senses |
| There’s an empty bottle lying on the floor |
| And it’s undermined your defences.» |
| Save me, Holy Mother, please, save me! |
| I got a heart of gold |
| And for your love I’d go hungry and thirsty |
| I need a saviour and you’re the one |
| I throw myself into the arms of mercy |
| There’s still hope for the runaway son |
| And for your love I’d go hungry and thirsty |
| I need a saviour and you’re the one |
| I throw myself into the arms of mercy |
| There’s still hope for the runaway son |
| Good brother, show me how to get home |
| I’ve been walking in the backyard of Satan |
| I’m so stubborn that I’ll never give in |
| But now my heart’s cold and aching |
| Save me, Holy Mother, please, save me! |
| I got a heart of gold |
| And for your love I’d go hungry and thirsty |
| I need a saviour and you’re 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 |
| And for your love I’d go hungry and thirsty |
| I need a saviour and you’re the one |
| I throw myself into the arms of mercy |
| There’s still hope for the runaway son |
| And for your love I’d go hungry and thirsty |
| I need a saviour and you’re the one |
| I throw myself into the arms of mercy |
| Salvation for the runaway son |
