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
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
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
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
Is it me? Is it you? Nothing that, I can do
To make you, change your mind
(Why do you run away? Won't do)
Is it me? Is it you? Nothing that, I can do
(Why do you run away?)
Is it a, waste of time?
Is it me? Is it you? Nothing that, I can do
To make you, change your mind, oh!
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
(What is it I have to say)
So why are you running away?
(To make you admit you're afraid?)
Why are you running away?
