Don't Run


Verse 1
So it didn't turn out quite as you planned
And you can't believe it's ending up this way
Just when you thought you have your feet on dry land
You've sunk past where you started, now your starting
Over again


Verse 2
Why does this always to happen to you,
When everyone else is getting along just fine
It's like the rain clouds only follow you
And you wonder when it's gonna be your time


Bridge 1
Hang on a little longer
Don't you give up now


Chorus 1
Don't you run away, cause everything is gonna be okay
You're not alone
I'm here to stay, I won't let you down, I do not change
I will not leave you alone


Verse 3
A big ol' understatement, to say
You've had your share of disappointments
A flood of what ifs and how comes,
Is breaking down the dam of confidence you've won


Bridge 2
When the world's love is getting cold
Watching your parents growing old
Friends you love to far to hold
the hopes you have they hit the road
When the open arms begin to fold
It's not you it's me your told
I'll tell you once, and sing it again
