Running Away

Games, we can play games
Throwing our money down
Rolling our hearts around
And hoping that they land together
Fine, everything’s fine
Keep it up on a shelf
I wish you could read yourself
Printed up and bound in leather

(I can’t stop you)
Running away
(Nothing changes)
Running away from love
(You can’t help)
Running away
(Get, set, go, you’re)
Running away from love

This is what it is
What were you hoping for
Your own key to heaven’s door
A saviour and a stand-in father
Stay just for a change
Why don’t you stay awhile
Indulge me in my denial
And help me make the morning harder

(I can’t stop you)
Running away
(Nothing changes)
Running away from love
(You can’t help)
Running away
(Get, set, go, you’re)
Running away from love
(Bye bye, you’re)
Running away
(Nothing changes)
Running away from love
(You can’t help)
Running away
(Get, set, go, you’re)
Running away from love

I know you can’t resist the big bad world
(Running away from love)
All that you might have missed
The lustre of the pearl

(I can’t stop you)
(Nothing changes)

(I can’t stop you)
Running away
(Nothing changes)
Running away from love
(You can’t help)
Running away
(Get, set, go, you’re)
Running away from love
(Bye bye, you’re)
Running away
(Nothing changes)
Running away from love
(You can’t help)
Running away
(Get, set, go, you’re)
Running away from love
