Early September
I'll always remember
Break of the seasons
I thought you'd never leave
What a thing to believe
But you didn't think we
Were what I thought we were
I'll get so mean and
You just won't know what to say
But you'll know when to go
And so I won't drive around
I won't say a word
I'll just scream your name
Through every town
And, no, I won't say hello
It'll send me right back
To the city where I loved and lost you
And all I do is run, run, run, run away
And all because you just didn't try to stay
I'm running away
Wish you would've stayed
I'm running away
It's been two weeks now
I'm feeling so weak now
Hang onto moments
Still dancing with your ghost
I'm really doing the most
And I can still see it all
The rise and the fall
Waking up in your bed
Got you up in my head
It feels like just yesterday
When your eyes met mine
So, baby, when did we burn it all down?
And all I do is run, run, run, run away
And all because you just didn't try to stay
I'm running away
Wish you would've stayed
I never thought I'd run, run, run, run away
I really did believe every word you said
I'm running away
Wish you would've stayed
I'm running away
Remeber when you said
We'd make a home of this city?
And I swear with that look in your eyes
I believed every word
So if you should call me
In a year or in 30
I can still see your hands in my hair
But I know that you won't come back
No, you won't come back, ah
I'm running away
Wish you would've stayed
And all I do is run, run, run, run away
And all because you just didn't try to stay
I'm running away
Wish you would've stayed
I'm running away
