Laws - Run Away lyrics
rate meI was feeling sad
Cant help looking back
Highways flew by
Run, run away
No sense of time
Like you to stay
Want to keep you inside
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay
Want you to be my prize
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Want you to stay
Want you to be my prize
And now you're standing there holding out our promise ring
You're crying but you're feeling not a thing
Cause it dawned on you, like a new day
That's your man not a king, he a parasite
And you life is what he got up in,
And all you got is him
But he got everybody,
you're a working woman, he a busy body
You have big dreams but you had a little hobby
And you had the feeling you could change him, it was silly probably
And now here we are, dinner table flips
Cell phone opened, text message sits
On the floor like a tell tale heart, she ask, do i want to read this?
I'm like go ahead start, because I'm at the point of giving in
So we can begin again, fresher than the Prince in them Bell-Aire parts
But I can tell by the look that I get from her eyes
I took everything she had now she empty inside
I try to reverse roles
If it was me in her place I be putting someone in hearse mode
Now I'm feeling like a stranger
She looking at me like I raped her
All of the sudden the memory of what I used to be do a drifts through the air like a vapor
And it breaks her, she don't got nowhere to go, we don't even know the neighbors so I told her
Run, run run away, lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay, want you to be my prize
Run, run run away, lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay, want you to be my prize
Now i was never one to fight,
But we would argue how I'll never be the type of guy her mother likes
What do I do? Go and prove her mother right?
I'm too embarrassed, I don't even want the rights
Show up at the door with flowers like poor me but I do
And I'm blocked at the doorway,
I could see her in the kitchen with her head down wishing she could put it all behind and call me
We was too close and it's been too long
And the memory of what we had is too strong
She had some genuine feelings but they was used wrong
And now the only decent thing to do is move on
As she watched me, took her every ounce of will power not to stop me
And accept my apology, all of the sudden heard some footsteps from behind me
Think she wanted to hold me but she only told me
Run, run run away, lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay, want you to be my prize
Run, run run away, lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay, want you to be my prize
Run away, run away, run away.
Run away, run away, run away
Run away, run away, run away
Run away, run away, run away.
