Run A Mile

Wasn't quite sure before, but now I'm believing.

I know there were necessary things about you leaving.

Maybe I knew right well how I was on about it.

Twice over and again I learned to doubt it.

And I'm sorry. I blew it.

I'll never say there ain't nothin' to it.

And I saw it and I knew it.

I know you know what it's still doing.

Thought if I gave an inch, you might not run a mile.

Baby now I see why the Mona Lisa smiles.

She smiles at me. x5

Thought I might still try to soften up the edges.

I backed up, stepped away and you still seemed restless.

And I saw it and I knew it.

I recognize what it's still doing.

I deserved it, you knew it.

You stood close to the line when I drew it.

Thought if I gave an inch, you might not run a mile.

Baby now I see why the Mona Lisa smiles.

She smiles at me. x3

And I saw it and I knew it.

I closed my eyes to stride right through it.

Had it coming and I knew it.

I needed it and now I've gone through it.

Thought if I gave an inch, you might not run a mile.

Baby now I see why the Mona Lisa smiles.

Thought if I gave an inch, you might not run a mile.

Baby now I see why the Mona Lisa smiles.

She smiles at me. x10
