Runnin' away runnin' away 
Hey hey hey runnin' away 

I had the perfect girl we'd spend together hours everyday 
You'd say that I had it made and I was all for the commitment 
But then she started wantin' more from me 
And my mind began to change suddenly it didn't feel the same 
I didn't know what I was doing 

I was dodging commitment start but don't finish 
My M.O.'S always the same girl I know I been trippin' 
I'm confessin' I'm confessin' so baby just hear me out 
I'm confessin' I'm confessin' so baby just see me off 
I wanna show my heart but I don't know where to start 

So I keep runnin' 
With real love in my face 
Why am I breakin' away 
I keep runnin' 
So scared of the heartbreak 
So scared of makin' mistakes 
I keep runnin' 
When all I really need is you 
All I really need is you 
But I keep on runnin' away 
Hey hey hey 

I caught a second wind of happiness when I met this girl 
And then we became the best of friends 
We went from half full to half empty 
I took a detour tryin' to find myself 
But I'm on this road again want out of this box I'm in 
I made it harder to be with me 

I was dodging commitment start but don't finish 
My M.O.'S always the same girl I know I been trippin' 
I'm confessin' I'm confessin' so baby just hear me out 
I'm confessin' I'm confessin' so baby just see me off 
I wanna show my heart but I don't know where to start 

So I keep runnin' 
With real love in my face 
Why am I breakin' away 
I keep runnin' 
So scared of the heartbreak 
So scared of makin' mistakes 
I keep runnin' 
When all I really need is you 
All I really need is you 
But I keep on runnin' away 
Hey hey hey 

I'm 'bout to break down baby I'm done 
No I can't keep up runnin' this marathon 
No need to rest when I already won 
And if I got you by my side girl I already won 

It's like lookin' for a treasure when it's already mine 
It don't make sense don't make sense 
No matter how hard I try to define 
I'm comin' face to face with myself 
I know I don't need don't need no one else 
So can somebody tell me where I'm goin' 
So can somebody tell me where I'm goin' 

I keep runnin' 
With real love in my face 
Why am I breakin' away 
I keep runnin' 
So scared of the heartbreak 
So scared of makin' mistakes 
I keep runnin' 
When all I really need is you 
All I really need is you 
But I keep on runnin' away 
I keep runnin' 
With real love in my face 
Why am I breakin' away 
I keep runnin' 
So scared of the heartbreak 
So scared of makin' mistakes 
I keep runnin' 
When all I really need is you 
All I really need is you 
But I keep on runnin' away 
Hey hey hey 

Runnin' away runnin' away hey hey hey 
Runnin' away runnin' away hey hey hey
