I got troubles that I can't hide 
So many and it's turning on the inside out 
I know a woman's nature, is nothing you can save here
Me, I run every time

We got two tickets but the one way 
And I went with it so I can't say no 
I lit a fuse I can't stop, I opened doors, I can't lock 
Still, I never meant to be this close

And let it slip away, I keep stumbling till I finally miss the last train 
Oohh, she's ready, I'm not ready 
I hear people go crazy for steady, but me, I run every time

So I told her get a head start 
Like the last one I didn't have the heart, to tell her straight
I know how she'll recieve it and I can't bear to see it 
That's why I never meant to be this close

And let it slip away, I keep stumbling till I finally miss the last train, oohh 
Oohh, she's ready, I'm not ready 
I hear people go crazy for steady, but me, I run every time

And I hope she sees, it's not her, it's just me 
And I'm so sorry, to be this close

And let it slip away, I keep stumbling till I finally miss the last train 
Oohh, she's ready, I'm not ready 
I hear people go crazy for steady, but me, I run every time

I'm close and let it slip away, I keep dragging my feet till I finally miss the last train 
Oohh, she's ready, I'm not ready 
I hear people go crazy for steady, but me, I run every time 
I run every time, I run every time, I'm close
