lyrics
You had me running away.
And you had me dying to say,
That I can’t believe in myself.
And I don’t want else, not anyone else, well,
You used to think you were so in love,
Well I know what I want to be.
I’ve seen through you my girl!
And my friends they all say,
“You are lucky as well,
But you could do better”
And she tells me all the time
That all her friends say
“Ooh, I wish I had some one,
Just like the way he is!,”
But I don’t really care,
I was too nice, but now I dare
Not to call you every night
It’s your turn now ‘cos I’m all right.
You had me running away.
Now you, well now you’re running my way.
‘Cos I can believe in myself.
And I don’t want anyone else, not anyone else, well,
I used to think that I was so in love,
Well I know what I want to be.
I’ve seen through you my girl!
And my friends they all say,
“You are lucky as well,
But you could do better”
And she tells me all the time
That all her friends say
“Ooh, I wish I had some one,
Just like the way he is,”
Teach me how to run.
