Run Away

Afterall this time together

Ibelieve that we’re worth fighting for,

Butyou can’t stay to talk it out.

Youjust shut down and walk right out the door.

Itried so hard to make you see

Themillion-and-one reasons you should stay,

Butyour ears won’t listen to the truth,

Youjust take your foolish pride and run away.

 

Youcan run but you can’t hide

Becauseyou know down deep inside

Thesimple truth that you and I are one.

Wecan’t change our destiny

Eventhough we don’t agree and

Isay things that put you on the run.

 

Iknow you didn’t mean it when

Yousaid you couldn’t take it anymore.

You’llbe back to work it out

Justlike we did a hundred times before.

Butevery time feels different

Andevery time I just hope and pray

Thatit won’t be the last time

Thenext time that you up and run away.

 

Youknow I couldn’t help it

WhenI told you it was over,

It’sjust a chess piece in this game we play.

Butyou’ve been gone so long this time

Ican’t help but wonder

Ifthis time is forever and a day,

Andthis time is the last time

Thatyou run away.
