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]
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
[Chorus]
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
Is it me, is it you?
(is it me, is it you)
Nothing that, I can do
(nothing that, I can do)
To make you, change your mind
(to make you…)
Is it me, is it you?
(so why do - you run - away)
Nothing that, I can do
(won’t you tell me)
Is it a, waste of time?
(why do - you run - away)
Is it me, is it you?
Nothing that, I can do
To make you, change your mind - no
[Chorus]
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
(what is it, I have to say)
[Chorus]
So why are you running away?
(to make you admit, you're afraid)
Why are you running away?
