James Newton Howard
Run Away
[Verse 1]
Remember I'm the one
Who didn't have a lot to say
I was trying to find the courage
But I let you walk away
And I can't forget your face
You know it haunts me all the time
And it seems to me I'm living in a dream

[Chorus]
Wish we could run away
And we could be alone together
Far away
And leave the world behind
Run away (Run away)
What I want to say is
You're a part of me
Let me be a part of you

[Verse 2]
I wanna tell you what I'm thinking
But the words get in the way
When I'm sitting here alone
I find the things I meant to say
If I wrote them in a letter
Would you read between the lines?
Would you understand how much I really care?
[Chorus]
Wish we could run away
And we could be alone together
Far away
And leave the world behind
Run away (Run away)
What I want to say is
You're a part of me
Let me be a part of you

[Bridge]
(I) I love you
(Need) I need you
(You) Don't want to live without you

[Verse 3]
If I'm backward counting forward
Would you help me realize
All the answers to the questions
I've been asking with my eyes?
I could hand you all the cliches
But you've heard them all before
And I want to say I love you in my own way

[Chorus]
And could we run away?
And we could be alone together
Far away
And leave the world behind
Run away (Run away)
What I want to say is
You're a part of me
Let me be a part of you
Run away (Run away)
And we could be alone together
Far away
And leave the world behind
Run away (Run away)
(I love you, I need you)
What I want to say is
(I want you)
You're a part of me
(I love you, I need you)
Let me be a part of you
