There's no reason to hide this way
|
We're moving further apart each day
|
You're the one that I trust
|
|
Crossing the border looking for questions
|
To all the answers in my mind
|
Through Indiana and into Chicago
|
Feeling the winds of compromise
|
South in Kentucky traffic is go slow
|
Sentence my patience to doing time
|
We roll into Nashville
|
Sad country songs just seem to rhyme
|
|
There's no reason to hide this way
|
Moving further apart each day
|
And you're the one that I trust
|
But I'm running away from you
|
I'm running away from you
|
And it's got to stop
|
And now is the time
|
|
I pack in a suitcase all my opinions
|
I wish I could lose them on the flight
|
We cross Carolina the Atlantic beside her
|
And swallow the Georgia countryside
|
Alone in a truck stop thinking about you
|
My coffee as cold as our goodbye
|
And sweet Alabama
|
I wish I could find a home tonight
|
|
Now is the time to listen the hour of freedom
|
The power to let it all go
|
To rebuild the bridges surrender defences
|
And fall like the sun on the snow
|
Throwing down the stones of my self-righteousness
|
I am found and forgiven by your sweet caress
|
|
I was running away from you
|

Running Away From You
