I got troubles that I can't hide
So many and it's turning on the inside out
I know a woman's nature

Is nothing you can save here
Me, I run every time


We got two tickets but the one way
And I went with it so I can't say no
I lit a fuse I can't stop

I opened doors I can't lock
Still, I never meant to be this close


(Chorus)
And let it slip away
I keep stumbling till I finally miss the last train

Oh, she's ready
I'm not ready
I hear people go crazy for steady

But me, I run every time

So I told her get a head start

Like the last one I didn't have the heart
To tell her straight


I know how she'll recieve it
And I can't bear to see it
That's why I never meant to be this close


(Chorus)
And let it slip away

I keep stumbling till I finally miss the last train
Oh, she's ready
I'm not ready

I hear people go crazy for steady
But me, I run every time


And I hope she sees
It's not her, it's just me
And I'm so sorry

To be this close

(Chorus)

And let it slip away
I keep stumbling till I finally miss the last train
Oh, she's ready

I'm not ready
I hear people go crazy for steady
But me, I run every time


I'm close
And let it slip away

I keep dragging my feet till I finally miss the last train
Oh, she's ready
I'm not ready

I hear people go crazy for steady
But me, I run every time
I run every time

I run every time I'm close
