Standin' in the middle, for all you needed was a come on
And all I had to be was fickle then, or funny then
You said I had make it on my own
But you were footloose and crazy and too happy
To be that way, for me to fall
So, hon, I fought you and lost you and
Found out it was not you after all
What if I did find someone and what if you do
Oh, baby
I have always been
Runnin' away from you
Oh, but did you like it, standing in the ringer
Did you like knowing' how it is done there
You might hang around 'til it gets bigger or somethin'
There's someone bound to pull out somewhere
And you'll be hungry and fightin'
For someplace to hide in and still be known
'Cause when it's comin' it just takes one hit
In the right place to send you home
What if I did find someone and what if you do
Oh, baby
I have always been
Runnin' away from you
'Cause I go pickin' up all the pieces, runnin'
There's always some I hadn't found yet
There's still somethin' 'bout supposed-to-be's, and hopes-to-be's
I'll turn my head back for one minute
But I see the short runs like re-runs
And usually I do catch on, just in time
When I lost you, I lost you and that's all there was to it
I'm gonna be back home and I still can't find you
What if I did find someone and what if you do
Oh, baby
I have always been
Runnin' away from you
What if I did, what if you do
If I can't get back into the past
How'm I gonna find you
Wouldn't that be good
What if you do
If I can't get back into the past
How'm I gonna find you
Runnin' away from you
If I can't get back into the past
How'm I gonna find you
What if you do
Runnin' away from you...
