Not From You
Take away
These tired legs
They don't want to run again
But I feel it
An itch
Then take away this tired heart
It doesn't want any of this
If it can't have you
I don't know where to go
And I'm running
Always in circles
And I don't want to run away
Not from you
Not this time around
So keep giving me reasons
To stand still
Tell me why
A million times
Until it's just words
Tell me again and again
Why I should stay here
WIth you
The way it is
Even when the sky
Feels like it's crashing on us
Tell me you need me
And tell me
You want me
Forever
Make it feel like it never did
Just give me a reason
To stand still
Because I don't want to run
Not from you
Never from you
