Sydney (I'll Come Running)

(album: Loverboy - 2011)

Sydney, whenever you feel unhappy
All you have to do is call me
I can make you laugh
Sydney, I know that you were wrongly accused
I hope you don't lose your sense of humor
Allegations made in the school yard
Soccer moms gossip in the dog park
Their bark is worse then their bite
They're only a couple of crazy cougars
They're bored and spreading their desperate rumors

You know that I was never that cool
But I won't be taken for a fool
If they wanna talk trash
They can talk, talk, talk
But they better come (collect)
And if you ever need me, call me
I'll come running straight to you

Straight from the airport
(I'll come runnin')
Cut through the customs line
(I'll come runnin')
Bust down the courthouse doors
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney, I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney, I will testify to ya

We were in the basement
Just giving our blood on stage and
Pretending that we were famous
While you were getting framed
I went back to my room in Surrey Hills, yes I did
I didn't know you were in trouble until you came in
Just as skinny as a twig in my kitchen
And told me I was looking at a dead man
I said, "Sydney, you're wrong."

There's a lot of good people living in LA, yes there are and
We won't let nobody take you away, no we won't

You know I was never that cool
But I won't be taken for a fool
If the wanna talk trash they can talk, talk, talk
But they better come (collect)
And if you ever need me you just call me
I'll come running to you

Straight from the airport
(I'll come runnin')
Cut through the customs line
(I'll come runnin')
Bust down the courthouse doors
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
I will testify
(I'll come running')
I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
to ya, to ya, to ya

Sydney whenever you think you need me
Call me up and I'll come running straight to you

I was never that cool
But I won't be taken for a fool
If the wanna talk trash they can talk, talk, talk
But they better come (collect)
And if you ever need me you just call me
I come running to ya

Straight from the airport
(I'll come runnin')
Cut through the customs line
(I'll come runnin')
Bust down the courthouse doors
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
I will testify
(I'll come running')
I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
to ya, to ya, to ya
I will testify
