Been running for a while Since I was a child Tryna find a place Just to hate Keep myself in line Day turns into night I needed my own space I don't know why I had to get away from you To get close to you Had to be alone Run a dirty mile or two Yeah, to do a few things on my own And time won't wait But it doesn't mean the end I had to get away from you To get close to you again Been running for a while Me, myself and I Didn't mean to cut All those ties I couldn't understand That love was in my hands Right there at my feet Before my eyes I had to get away from you To get close to you Had to be alone Run a dirty mile or two Yeah, to do a few things on my own And time won't wait But it doesn't mean the end I had to get away from you To get close to you again Always on my mind Though I try to keep on smiling You're hard to leave behind I had to get away from you To get close to you Had to be alone Run a dirty mile or two Yeah, to do a few things on my own And time won't wait But it doesn't mean the end I had to get away from you To get close to you again
