Runaways

I see a boy across the train

It's the middle of a winter night

And there's no one else on the train

He has a bag beside him

And I wonder what it's for

Or if it's the same reason as me

I want to ask him why he's here but just before I can

he gets up and walks to me

He takes a seat right beside me

Then slowly takes my hand

And says these three words to me

"I can understand."

I ask him what he means by that

He says "Don't you see?

I'm on this train for one reason, I ran away from home. If anyone can understand why you did it too, it's definitely me. "

He has an understanding look

And he's still holding my hand

It's when he kissed my lips though

That I took his hand too

Maybe we are two depressed kids

That couldn't find love at home so we decided to be runaways

And found love in each other

And never let it end
