Runnin'

Runnin used to be the way I pass my time

All over town just to see what I could find

Every now and then I find some company

But every kiss...

I try to tell myself that it was just a game

I'd run again to try and ease that lonely pain

No matter where I travel there I'd be stuck in those walls of skin call me

And I was just runnin' to find somethin true

And I just be runnin with nothing to prove

And I can't go runnin and nothing to show

They all saw me runnin and said there he go

You cut my eye one day when I was on a run

So how you make me feel my life had just begun

I've seen the last of all my roamin and days

'Cause I grew from you I've never run oh babe

Now you got me runnin to get home to you

And my heart keeps running when I think of things you do

And I full be runnin to the one else no one

They all see me runnin and say that love is for sure oh yeah

I'm not hesitating no and as soon as work is done yeah

As fast as my legs can carry me yeah

Mhmh yeah life ain't complicated oh no

When you got only one, one heart one joy

One place to be

And now I'm watching people runnin all around

Chasing after things I will just run them down

Life is so much better if they change their way

I wish I could tell them but you know I can't stand

'Cause I gotta get runnin and get home to you, gotta get home

And my heart keep runnin when I think of things you do

Think about the things you do

And I won't be runnin, no one else, no one no more

And now see me runnin and say that's love for sure

I gotta get runnin and get home to you, gotta get home

And my heart keep runnin when I think of things you do

And I won't be runnin, no one else, no one no more

And now see me runnin and say that's love for sure

And all see me running and say that's love for sure

They all see me runnin and say that's love for sure
