You went away,

Taking away my laughter

And my joy


Run

Run

Run


Naive;

I asked you to stay

And dance to the evening sun


Step

Step

Step


The next time it happens

I do not fret;

I stand and watch you leave


Run

Run

Run


You’ve come back

But I no longer

Need you


Step

Step

Step


I walk away

No turning back now

You watch with tears in your eyes


Run

Run

Run


Into the night

Where I no longer

Reside
