Running Away

Your head on my shoulder
The clock ticks midnight
The first time we met
I was too scared to try
Don't know what you saw
In my wandering eyes
I'm so glad you stayed
This time I'm not running away

And slowly I am placing
One foot in front of the other
Following your lead
As we dance through our nights and our days
With every step
I am a little bit weaker and
We grow a little bit stronger
But in your arms I feel safe

Just please don't let me fall
Hold me strong, hold me close
As songs of our lives try to turn us
To whatever way melody flows
Is it too much for me to say
I honestly feel like we could stay
Although I am somewhat scared to try
I know I just cannot say goodbye

The small things you do
Love, don't think they slip through
I keep every one
As a part of what we've become
A few months is not much
But now that I'm by your side
Halfway can't meet my step
No more love that's half led

And slowly I am placing
One foot in front of the other
Following your lead
As we move through our nights and our days
Steps can get heavy
We both will make mistakes
But in your arms I believe
I can dance through everything

Just please don't let me fall
Hold me strong, hold me close
As songs of our lives try to turn us
To whatever way melody flows
Is it too much for me to say
I honestly feel like we could stay
Although I am somewhat scared to try
I know I just cannot say goodbye

Your head on my shoulder
The clock ticks midnight
The first time we met
I was too scared to try
Don't know what you saw
In my wandering eyes
But I'm so glad you stayed
This time I'm not running away
