You Keep Running Away

You keep running away

Though I beg you not to leave

But still you won't stay

Darlin' you keep running away

Tear my heart apart every step of the way

You're here today and gone tomorrow

Leavin' this heart of mine in sorrow

Now you come around every now and then

Long enough to hurt me, and then you're gone again

Darlin' you, you keep running away

Oh, I begged you not to leave, you never stay

Now you, you keep running away

Leavin' me here to face another lonely day

To you all of this is just a game

But each time you came here, I feel the pain

But I've got so much love for you

I keep wanting you, no matter what you do

All I want to do is take care of you

This soul of mine has been possessed by you

Darling my heart has been obsessed with you

Just look at me, I'm not the man, I used to be

I used to be proud, I used to be strong

But all of that's changed girl, since you come along

Your lovin' sweetness is my weakness

Though I need you, dear, I just can't keep you near

Running away, running away, running away

Running away, running away, running away

Each time you go, the hurt comes callin'

My days become nights, darlin'

My nights become so much longer

You're in my life, you're in my heart

But I can't get you, get you into my arms

Darlin' you, you keep runnin' away

Darlin' you, you just keep runnin' away
