Why Are You Running From My Love

Why are you running from my love

What could you think I'm thinking of

Why are you running from my love

What could you think I'm thinking of

Could it be love has played

A cruel game on you

Did you believe in dreams

That never did come true

Then someone caught your heart

To end your lonely nights

Whispering promises

That faded with the light

Why are you running from my love

What could you think I'm thinking of

Why are you running from my love

What could you think I'm thinking of

Girl, I know what it's like

To watch my castles fall

Thought I had love for sure

I had nothing at all

So I turned off my heart

Claimed that this was the end

But now that you're in my life

I want to love again

Why are you running from my love

What could you think I'm thinking of

Why are you running from my love

What could you think I'm thinking of

We've both known pain

Let's now know joy

Don't let our sorrows

Ruin our tomorrows now

Why are you running from my love

What could you think I'm thinking of, thinking of

Why are you running

What could you think I'm thinking of

Why, why, why, why, why

Why are you running from my love

You know you're out

Stopping me to count on time, ooh, baby

You know you're out

Stopping me to count on time, ooh, baby

Why, oh, why, oh

(Why are you running)

Why, oh, why, oh, why, oh, why, why

(Why are you running)

I wanna love again

I wanna love again, I wanna love again

(Why are you running)

I wanna again

(Why are you running)

Why, oh, why, oh...
