Renegades

© Anne Sumner 2015

You run away on the winter's air
Call my name, but there's nothing there
And I had a dream to chase, before you picked my pockets bare
The renegades, got no need to stay in one place

And I knew you, when your dark side was showing through
And I always thought
You got a little bit of something I wanted

Your islands form when the oceans clash
Conjured a storm, and the sky went black
And I'd make a trade for you and the love we didn't have
The renegades, got no need for holding it back

And I knew you, when your dark side was showing through
And I always thought
You got a little bit of something I wanted

Two of a kind, sometimes more than two
There was a time I wanted to be like you
And I left it all behind, couldn't stand to look at you straight
The renegades, got no need to stay in one place

And I knew you, when your dark side was showing through
And I always thought
You got a little bit of something I wanted

Your company, we were best of friends
Stay with me 'til the autumn ends
And though we were family, the only one I ever had
The renegades, got no need for holding it back

And I knew you, when your dark side was showing through
And I always thought
You got a little bit of something I wanted
