Damn Yankees

Written by Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades, Ted Nugent
(Everyone needs a place to run away, run away)
Summer night, moonlit sky
Tearing pages from a magazine, she cries
"I don't wanna be the lonely one tonight."
She said, "I came to this place, full of dreams
Young and innocent and only 16
Now I wonder why they call it Tparadise.'"
So she runs, and she hides, and she dries the tears from
her eyes
And the night goes on, and on, and on
She's in the twilight zone (twilight zone)
Yeah, you gotta run, run, run away
It's such a long way home
When it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, run away
Perfect day, feels like Spring
Can see forever but you can't see anything
Now I wonder why they call it "paradise"
It's a crime, it's a shame
And they won't remember your name
And your life goes on, and on, and on
