I've been chasing you for a long time Layin' out my best lines But you just run away There you are, starin' at me from a distance So whyy all the resistance What is the game you play Why tell me why Should there be this escapade Why make me cry When you just slip away (Chorus) Runaway love Whatcha feelin' inside Runaway love And why do you deny that it could be love Ooh, my runaway love Runaway love You won't let me near Runaway love And what is it you fear about fallin' in love Ooh, my runaway love Why is it so hard to get close to you Whatcha tryin' to put me through I'm dyin' for your touch Seems to me you've been holdin' out too long Your whole outlook has grown 'Cause you're alone too much (Chorus) Runaway love Runaway love Why tell me why Should there be this escapade Why make me cry When you just slip away (Chorus) Runaway love (repeats until fade)
