Lyrics Civil Twilight

Civil Twilight

Run Dry

I got up and dusted off my running shoes

To see how far I could run away

I got up the hill and came back down again

And I blamed it all on you, the foolish things I do

I tried to leave you but I don't know how

I try to give you up a thousand times

I told myself all kinds of foolish lies

But it's your love that won't run dry

I have looked down all those drinking wells

In some of them I accidentally fell

But when I hit the bottom

All I came up with was a dry and empty shell

I tried to leave you but I don't know how

I try to give you up a thousand times, yeah

I told myself all kinds of foolish lies

But it's your love that won't run dry, oh

I gave it in, I gave it all

I just don't know anymore

I can't take this

I just don't know anymore

I tried to leave you but I don't know how

I try to give you up a thousand times

Ooh, I tell myself all kinds of foolish lies

Oh, but it's your love, it's your love, that won't run dry

I tried to leave you but I don't know how, oh

I try to give you up a thousand times

Yes, I told myself all kinds of foolish lies

Oh, but it's your love, it's your love, that won't run dry

Oh, it just won't run, it just won't run, dry, oh, ooh
