| I phoned you up one summer night
|
| The stars were twinkling and the moon was bright.
|
| A lonely soul, a silhouette
|
| With so much love to offer me and yet,
|
| And it sounds very well
|
| You’d have to go.
|
| There was something in your eyes that told me so
|
| And though you kissed me goodbye, you wouldn’t say why
|
| You left me high and dry.
|
| But I could tell that you were running away from love
|
| Um huh, running away from my love
|
| But try as you may, your running away
|
| Will never cure you of
|
| The pain you feel inside from running away from love.
|
| Dit dit 'n dit dah
|
| I see you now alone in bed
|
| So much confusion running through your head.
|
| You’re wondering why you let me go
|
| 'Cause down inside you seem to need me so,
|
| And you know very well you can’t get free
|
| There’s something in your heart that’s a part of me
|
| You know you’re running for nigh —
|
| I won’t be denied until you’re by my side.
|
| So what’s the reason for you running away from love
|
| Running away from my love
|
| Cause try as you may,
|
| Your running away will never cure you of
|
| The pain inside you feel from running away from love
|
| Dit dit 'n dit dah
|
| Why do you run, you run, you run, run away
|
| Why do you run away from my love
|
| Running away
|
| Why do you run, you run, you run, run away
|
| You’ve been running away from love
|
| Running away from my love
|
| Yes, you’ve been running away from love
|
| Running away from my love
|
| You’d better stop
|
| Running away from my love
|
| You’ve been running away from love
|
| Running away from my love |
