[Verse 1]
I want to see the full moon in the southern sky
I want to take you back to, back to when we felt alive
And I don't know why
I don't know how to say
Come with me tonight, and we'll fall without a fight
I want to make a toast to the love that never dies
I want to see the world through, through someone else's eyes
And get swept away
For just one more day, I'd say
Now I'm done with running away
[Chorus]
Burn me
You go and burn me down
I need you now
Turn me around
Oh, you got me
Yeah, you got me
It's safe to say
I'm done with running away
[Verse 2]
If I had it my way, we'd put the past aside
We'd take thе boat to the bay, leaving the wholе world behind
As the sea takes hold
Of our tales untold, I'd say
That I won't fall without a fight
If you're scared, it's ok
If you leave, it's fine
If you must run away, leaving us to wonder why
If we had more time
If I'd found the lines to say
Now I'm done with running
[Chorus]
Burn me
You go and burn me down
I need you to turn me around
Ooh, you got me
Yeah, you got me
It's safe to say
I'm done with running away
[Verse 3]
The fire hits my tongue
The lightning starts to fill my lungs
And the words I meant to say are pouring out now one by one
I've been searching long for something real
For a way to feel just strong enough to say
I'm done with running away
I'm done with running
[Chorus]
You burn me
You go and burn me down
I need you to turn me around
Ooh, you got me
Yeah, you got me
It's safe to say
[Outro]
That I am
I am
Done
I am, oh
Done with running away
