"Runaway" lyrics

"Runaway"

Major highs and major lows
Hangin' over, never sober
Lookin' up and down for you
You talk to me so formally
Where intimacy used to be
I've been lookin' up and down for you

Now we're sittin' in the rain on a blue Monday
And you're blowin' cigarette smoke in my face
Sinkin' into every word you say
You're pullin' me and I'm holdin' my ground
You know I can't do this right now

You tell me, we're not done
Tell me, let love run
Let it runaway, runaway
Tryna be someone
Should I let love run?
Runaway, runaway

I've been careless with my heart
And I'm not ready to hand it over
Still lookin' out for me (Hey)
I got some healing of my own
Too many tears, too many shoulders
Still lookin' out for me (Hey)

And I know I'll be back here someday
In our corner spot at the old cafe
And I'll sink back into every word you say
You're pullin' me and I'm holdin' my ground
You know I can't do this right now

You tell me, we're not done
Tell me, let love run
Let it runaway, runaway
Tryna be someone
Should I let love run?
Runaway, runaway

On my way down (Hey)
Into the deep part of the shadow
Runaway, runaway
I'm afraid now (Hey)
And I know that I can't do this alone
Runaway, runaway

Time to free my mind
Trust what I feel inside
Time to free my mind

You tell me, we're not done
Tell me, let love run
Let it runaway, runaway
Tryna be someone
Should I let love run?
Runaway, runaway

On my way down (Hey)
Into the deep part of the shadow
Runaway, runaway
I'm afraid now (Hey)
And I know that I can't do this alone
Runaway, runaway
