A collaboration with my European buddy Chris. The music is his, the words are mine. Instrumentally I recorded the vocals and the guitar solo, Chris the rest. All recording and mixing done on Korg D3200s.

DON’T RUN AWAY
Copyright 2015 Red Shoe Productions
V1
Sometimes the charms of love just fade away
Here today and gone tomorrow
Broken hearts and tears of sorrow
Sometimes it makes you want to run away
To a place where you can hide
The emptiness you feel inside
C1
Don’t run way (sweet Virginia)
Don’t give into the sadness
That you hide behind your smile
Don’t run away (sweet Virginia)
Maybe I can make it better
If you’ll only stay awhile
V2
Wish you’d just move on over close to me
Who knows but you might find
Happiness is state of mind
You’ve got to look before you’ll ever see
That livin’ in the here and now
The past don’t matter anyhow
C2
Don’t run way (sweet Virginia)
Don’t give into the sadness
Of the love that got away
Don’t run away (sweet Virginia)
Baby I can make it better
If you’ll only stay
V3
Let’s get together on some Friday night
Dress up fancy; go downtown
Do some dancing; party down
Then maybe later if the feeling’s right
We can hold each other tight
Be in love the whole damn night.
C3
Don’t run way (sweet Virginia)
Don’t give into the sadness
That you hide behind your smile
Don’t run away (sweet Virginia)
Baby I can make it better
If you’ll only stay awhile
