Running Away

verse 1: i don't want you to give it all up and leave your own life collecting dust. and i don't want you to feel sorry for me. you never gave us a chance to be. and i don't need you to be by my side to tell me that everything's alright. i just wanted you to tell me the truth. you know i'd do that for you. chorus: why are you running away? verse 2: ' cause i did enough to show you that i was willing to give and sacrifice. and i was the one who was lifting you up when you thought your life had had enough. and when i get close you turn away. there's nothing that i can do or say. so now i need you to tell me the truth. you know i'd do that for you. repeat chorus bridge: is it me? is it you? nothing that i can do to make you change your mind. is it me? is it you? nothing that i can do. is it a waste of time? last chorus: so why are you running away? what is it i have to say to make you admit you're afraid? why are you running away?
