Girl I tried to run but couldn't get too far
My heart is pumping
But still I'm running in place
No matter how hard I try to ditch your touch
When you're away too long oh girl is too much
But every time I run I make it
Oh so fast
Girl I'm runnin scared
My heart is beating so fast
I heard that you can make a man
Change his plan
That's why I'm running fast
I'm running the hundred yard dash
I ran for the hills and girl there you were
How you appeared you see I'll never know
I told the bartender to pour me a double fast
And light me a smoke so I can sing some jazz
Now here come them legs, here come those eyes
And neither one I could never deny
I'm trying to be smooth as I can
But I'll guess I need another plan
I need your lovin' baby oh so bad
Girl I'm runnin scared
My heart is beating so fast
I heard that you can make a man
Change his plan
That's why I'm running fast
I'm running the hundred yard dash
Your love gets stronger
And it feels like every day is getting longer
I feel your love like a monkey on my back
Girl your heart is so big
See I can feel the attack
Whoa oh
I need your loving
I want your loving
I got to have your loving
I need ya
Got to
Got to...
