Why Ain’t I Running

[Verse 1]
I can hear
That highway calling
As I watch the sunrise
Crawling across her shoulder
This is usually goodbye
And yet those words
I just can't find here
As I hold her
She's like no other woman
That I have known before
And it ain't me to
See the morning sun
From this side of the door

[Chorus]
Why ain't I running?
Why ain't I gone?
How does she hold me
Without holding on?
In love or a fight
She's stronger than strong
Something's not right
If there ain't nothing wrong
It's got me wondering
Why ain't I running?
Why ain't I gona?

[Verse 2]
All those words
I left behind me
Praying they would never
Find me and my freedom
But if they stood
Right here beside me
They would never recognise me
For all that she's done

[Bridge]
Once happiness was only
Whenever I was on my own
So now why do I feel lonely
Any time that I'm alone

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
No, they've never built
A wall that high
Or made a chain that strong
And God ain't never
Made a place
I felt like I belong

[Chorus]
