Lyrics Runaway - Sophie and the Giants

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 pulling me in and I’m holding my ground
You know I can’t do this right now
You tell me we’re not done
Tell me let love run
But I run away, run away
Trying to be someone
Should I let love run
Run away, run away
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 we’ll be back here someday
In our corner spot of the old café
And I’ll sink back into every word you say
You’re pulling me in and I’m holding my ground
You know I can’t do this right now
You tell me we’re not done
Tell me let love run
But I run away, run away
Trying to be someone
Should I let love run
Run away, run away
I’m awake now (hey)
Into the deep, out of the shadow
Run away, run away
Not afraid now (hey)
And I know that I can do this alone
Run away, run away
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
But I run away, run away
Trying to be someone
Should I let love run
Run away, run away
I’m awake now (hey)
Into the deep, out of the shadow
Run away, run away
Not afraid now (hey)
And I know that I can do this alone
Run away, run away
