"I Can't Catch You" lyrics

"I Can't Catch You"

I guess you could say
I'm a little afraid
I'm a little afraid
What if you go away?
I've seen it before
I've been here before
If I have to love myself
Tell me how to love myself
What's there to love about myself?
I just wanna see
That as a person you want me
As a person you want me

But I'm feeling the pain of all these bags in the way
And I'm thinking you're just gonna run away

And I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
(Ah, ah)

I guess I would say
That I want you to stay
That I want you to stay
'Cause you have this strange knack
Adds a glow to my black
As you chase it all away
And I hope that you can see
I will someday leave these things
I am waiting to be free

But I'm feeling the pain of all these bags in the way
And I'm thinking you're just gonna run away

And I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
Oh, I wanna catch you
(Ah, ah)

But I'm feeling the pain of all these bags in the way
And I'm thinking you're just gonna run away

And I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
Oh, I wanna catch you
(Ah, ah)
I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
I can't catch you
(Ah, ah)
Oh, I wanna catch you
(Ah, ah)

(Ah, ah)
(Ah, ah)
(Ah, ah)
(Ah, ah)
