I don't want you to give it all up
And leave your own life collecting dust
And I don't want you to feel sorry for me
You never gave us a chance to be
And I don't need you to be by my side
To tell me that everything's alright
I just wanted you to tell me the truth
You know I'd do that for you
So why are you running away
Why are you running away
Cause I did enough to show you that I
Was willing to give and sacrifice
And I was the one who was lifting you up
When you thought your life had had enough
And when I get close you turn away
There's nothing that I can do or say
So now I need you to tell me the truth
You know I'd do that for you
So why are you running away
Why are you running away
Is it me is it you
Nothing that I can do
To make you change your mind
Is it me is it you
Nothing that I can do
Is it a waste of time
Is it me is it you
Nothing that I can do
To make you change your mind
So why are you running away
Why are you running away
What is it I've got to say
So why are you running away
To make you admit you're afraid
Why are you running away
