Run

How long have I known you?
How long have I cared?
You think that should've shown you
I intended to be there.

But baby I don't have the time
To sit and try to change your mind
When we don't get anywhere.
I know what you want for me
But something just won't let it be,
Missed the mark and it's not quite near.

I listen very close to the words you say,
Hoping that something might fall my way.
You tell me all about the things that I lack,
You cannot see how you push me back.
Although you're looking for a love that will last forever,
The problems never change and they don't get better
The mess is the best of the life you've known,
I'm gonna leave you here to fight it out on your own
I'm gonna run.
I'm gonna run.

So how long have you known me?
And hasn't it been the same?
You think that would have shown me
It's not going to change

This time I'm gonna let it go
And purge myself from what I know
Say the things I've never said
Cause if I can't get though to you
Then what else am I suppose to do
But put the past to bed.

I listen very close to the words you say,
Hoping that something might fall my way.
You tell me all about the things that I lack,
You cannot see how you push me back.
Although you're looking for a love that will last forever,
The problems never change and they don't get better
The mess is the best of the life you've known,
I'm gonna leave you here to fight it out on your own
I'm gonna run.
I'm gonna run.

I listen very close to the words you say,
Hoping that something might fall my way.
You tell me all about the things that I lack,
You cannot see how you push me back.
Although you're looking for a love that will last forever,
The problems never change and they don't get better
The mess is the best of the life you've known,
I'm gonna leave you here to fight it out on your own
I'm gonna run.
I'm gonna run.

I'm gonna run.
I'm gonna run.
