Anberlin - THE RUNAWAYS lyrics

Come closer now

I know your desire is to be desired

Steal a kiss yet and call us friends

Distance is the thief in which you conspire

Turn and time and time will tell

Time will tell or tear us apart

You're miles and miles and miles away

Silence reveals where we really are

You only stand to break my heart

I can tell it by the way you runaway,

Runaway girl

You only stand to break my heart

I can tell it by the way you runaway,

Runaway girl

Runaway, runaway girl

It's clearer now

You're nowhere into giving

Giving into, giving into me

It's your fault

You're like a rare disease

I know you're in love

With love I believe

Turn and time and time will tell

Time will tell or tear us apart

You're miles and miles and miles away

Silence reveals where we really are

You only stand to break my heart

I can tell it by the way you runaway,

Runaway girl

You only stand to break my heart

I can tell it by the way you runaway,

Runaway girl

Runaway, runaway girl

Do you expect me to wait here?

(All alone in my thoughts and fears)

My whole life could flash before your eyes

(Hope one day that you realize)

This isn't the way it's supposed to be

(This is your life girl, now without me)

May regrets for us well up inside

(As feelings for you are buried alive)

Buried alive

You only stand to break my heart

I can tell it by the way you runaway,

Runaway girl

You only stand to break my heart

I can tell it by the way you runaway,

Runaway girl

Runaway, runaway girl

I only stand to break your heart

You can tell it by the way I walk away,

Runaway girl

I only stand to break your heart

You can tell it by the way I run away,

Runaway girl
