What is the song from the 1980's, featuring the chorus "Run away, take away, run away, take away"......
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Which has a chorus of "run away TURN away"
However, I will leave my two previous thoughts below:
It could it be Johnny O "Runaway Love"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPNIbfdq2LU
Sort of feminine sounding
Or, from the 90s, could it be Real McCoy's Run Away

You gave to me escape,You gave to me meaning,

You gave to me myself, And a reason to move on,
Now I'm going home, Where I can be myself,
I'm going home,where you can give me a dose
I'm going home, where your light is on for me all the time
You TAKE me Away yeah
You take me away to better place
You TAKE me Away yeah
You take me away to better place
You gave to me escape,You gave to me meaning,
(runaway)
You gave to me myself, And a reason to move on,
Now I'm going home, Where I can be myself,
I'm going home,where you can give me a dose

You TAKE me Away yeah
You take me away to better place
You TAKE me Away yeah
You take me away to better place
You take me away to better place
Take Away Run Away Take it away

Edit 1: Looks like it might be available on iTunes. Loading it up right now to take a look and see if it can be previewed. As I was installing iTunes I noticed your reply to another post about it being a female singer. Definitely not this one then! :)

Not really an Annie Lennox sound, but the first thing that came to mind.

Youre talkin a lot, but youre not sayin anything.
When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed.

M$It was driving me mad too! I though It was eutythmics or Annie Lennox at first time too. But then I remebered I male singer who sings in "falsetto" but I couldn't remeber the name 'cause I only heared once in a 80's spanish radio channel. But looking for his name finally I found the song too!!!
It's Smalltown boy by Bronski Beat (Jimmy Somerville)
I hope you enjoy it!!

I must also note that this is indeed a MAN singing this... Not a woman. ;) (comments by asker state that it was a woman in the song, and I understand how he could have made the mistake :) ).
Yeah, I think so too, however I was going to leave it in the order I posted it. I thought I had the answer...but kept looking...found another and then FINALLY found the right answer (by Googling "run away take away 80s song" if you were wondering).
Put Bronski Beat - Smalltown Boy on top, that's the answer.
