Runaway Love
Johnny O Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Te quiero mucho
Nuncha te dejo
You want to know why
Cause Johnny is here to stay
Love, a special word that's shared by two
An understanding that I love you
I feel that things won't always be right
We must remain strong and go on
Always remember my love that I adore you
Siempre te amo
Chorus:
You have got that love I'm needing more
Even though we faced closed doors
I have but one wish and that is to love you
So don't you runaway, runaway my love
And don't you take away, take away my heart
There's only much that I can say or do to you
To make you love me
Girl, an understanding of you and I
A love so precious, so treasured and true
Our love will stand the test of time to show
I'll always care baby just for you
I'll never let you down you know
Sweetheart you make me strong for I'll be there for you
Nuncha te dejo
Chorus (2x)
The song "Runaway Love" by Johnny O is a declaration of everlasting love from the artist to his beloved. The first verse of the song states "Mujer te quiero mucho, nunca te dejo," which translates to "Woman, I love you so much, I will never leave you." This sets the tone for the entire song, which is a testament to the strength and power of love. Johnny O then goes on to explain that his love for his partner is special and unique, and that he wants to be with her forever.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the depth of Johnny O's love for his partner. He sings "You have got that love I'm needing more, even though we faced closed doors." This line suggests that despite the challenges and obstacles they may face in their love, he will always need her and want to be with her. The last two lines of the chorus, "So don't you runaway, runaway my love, and don't you take away, take away my heart," further emphasize how deeply he cares for her and how important she is to him.
The second verse of the song continues to explore the strength of Johnny O's love for his partner. He states that their love is "so precious, so treasured and true" and that it will stand the test of time. He promises to always be there for her and to never let her down. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing once again the eternal nature of Johnny O's love for his partner.

I was one of those kids who grew up in the 80's, yet not old enough to go to clubs. My mom would play freestyle religiously when SHE would go clubbing, and it was always a dream growing up to see those acts myself. Finally got the chance to meet Johnny O on my 25th birthday, no less! Nice, humble guy.
