Janie Runaway Meaning

[[Verse 1]
It must have been my lucky Thursday
Your dad went on that spree
Before the crew put out the fires
You hopped a bus for NYC
Down in Tampa the future looked desperate and dark
Now you’re the wonderwaif of Gramercy Park

[Chorus]
Who makes the morning fabulous?
Who says today’s a fun day?
Why do I feel like sailing again?
Honey it’s you—Janie Runaway

[Verse 2]
Let’s grab some takeout from Dean and Deluca
A hearty gulping wine
You be the showgirl, I’ll be Sinatra
Way back in ’59
Sweetness in heels—look at you—in long black gloves
Come to old blue eyes tell me—who do you love?

[Chorus]
Who makes the traffic interesting?
Rescues a dreary Sunday
Who makes me feel like painting again?
Honey it’s you—Janie Runaway
, [Verse 3]
Let’s plan a weekend alone together
Out to Binky’s place
The sugar shack in Pennsylvania
Or would that be a federal case?
We’ll take the Big Red—the Blazer—it’s nice inside
And guess who’s coming along for the ride

[Chorus]
Who has a friend named Melanie?
Who’s not afraid to try new things?
Who gets to spend her birthday in Spain?
Possibly you—Janie Runaway
Who makes the morning fabulous?
Rescues a dreary Sunday
Who gets to spend her birthday in Spain?
Possibly you—Janie Runaway]
