Puerto Rico, all day on the beach
Blue water, white sand at her feet
Too bad it's just a magazine
It'll always be that place she's never seen, she's....
Home running away
From the same old, same old, everyday
In day out, predictable routine
Oh, she stays home running away
To the place in her mind where he'll take her someday
When he gets the time, until then, she's home running away
Fancy lunch with her best friend Ruby Mae
Dinner plans with her husband start at eight
But the dream ends with supper on the stove
The kitchen's 'bout as far as she can go, shes...
Home running away
From the same old, same old, everyday
In day out, predictable routine
Oh, she stays home running away
To the place in her mind where he'll take her someday
When he gets the time, until then, she's home running away
He walks in the door with her dreams in his hand
A two week vacation, 'cause he knows she's been
Home running away
From the same old, same old, everyday
In day out, predictable routine
Oh, she stays home running away
To the place in her mind where he'll take her someday
When he gets the time, until then, she's home running away
Running away
