You Keep Running Away

You're here today and gone tomorrow 
Leave this heart of mine in sorrow 
Then you come around every now and then 
Long enough to hurt me then you're gone again 

Darlin you keep running away 
Well I begged you not to leave but you never stay 
Now you, you keep running away 
Leavin me here to face another lonely day 

To you all of this is just a game 
Well each time you leave I feel the pain 
But I've got so much love for you 
I keep wanting you no matter what you do 

All I want to do is take care of you 
Everything I have in my life 
I will share with you 
This soul of mine has been processed by you 

Darling my heart has been obsessed with you 
Just look at me, I'm not the man I used to be 
I used to be proud, I used to be strong 
But all of that's changed girl since you come along 

Your lovin sweetness is my weakness 
Boy I need you, dear
I just can't keep you near 
Each time you go the hurt comes callin'

My days become nights, darlin 
My nights become so much longer 
You're in my life, you're in my heart 
But I can't get you 
Get you into my arms 
Darlin, you keep runnin away ......
