[Intro: Maxine Jones]
Are you ready to roll?
Funky Divas with a cool light stroll
Sending smooth vibe to all our dear fans
It feels good to be groovin' again
[Verse 1: Cindy Herron]
Chocolate cream to me baby, so sweet to me
Like some honey to a honey bee
I am drawn to you baby like a strong magnet, oh
Once I'm there, there's no turning back
There is no real excuse, why take this abuse
I keep running back, taking smack
Don't know what to say or to do
It's amazing, but I act crazy
I can't win, it's a sin
So I feel I have to fight it
[Chorus]
Runaway love
Like a train on broken tracks
Runaway love
It's too hard to turn it back now
Runaway love
Feels good without a doubt, yeah
Runaway love
Has to stop before it turns me out
[Verse 2: Terry Ellis]
Ooh, I'm not qualified to play love games with you
I've been hurt hard lately, I'm not for being used, no more
Just a little lovin', it's like a drug and I'm a drug addict
I just don't know why I just can't let go
I can't walk away, fade away
Every day my love grows and grows
It's a sickness, or is it weakness
Should I cope, is there hope?
All I know it's hard to stop...
[Chorus]
Runaway love
Runaway love
Runaway love
Feels good without a doubt, yeah
Runaway love
Has to stop before it turns me out
[Bridge]
Take me
Take me
Take me higher, higher
Ooh, take me higher, higher
Take me higher, take me higher
I know you can do it
Oh yeah, take me higher, higher
Take me higher, take me higher, ooh
Take me higher, higher
[Break]
[Chorus]
Runaway love
Like a train on broken tracks, yeah
Runaway love
It's too hard to turn it back, oh yeah
Runaway love
Ooh, feels good without a doubt, yeah
Runaway love
Has to stop before it turns me out
Runaway love
Runaway love
Ooh, just a runaway love
Runaway love
Feels good without a doubt, baby
Runaway love
Has to stop before it turns me out...
