(Michael W. Smith, Amy Grant and Wayne Kirkpatrick)

Who can say

Why she turned and walked away
I can't see
But she's gone away

Sometimes love
Means we have to stand and fight
Everybody runs

Everybody hides
No this ain't the movies
Now it's flesh and blood

And there's one thing I'm sure of

[Chorus:]

Hey little girl running out so fast
Gotta stay put for love to last
Why you gotta say

That love has gone away
It's not like that
Everybody hurts when the feelings fade

If you want 'em back
You know you gotta stay
No running

Love's coming back
Like only love can do


Love can do
Things you never thought it could
Mend a hurt so bad

Make you feel so good
Love's for fools
Wise enough to take a chance

Hear the music play
Let me see you dance
No this ain't the movies

Now it's give and take
And it's your heart at stake


[Chorus]

Hey little girl running so fast

Looking for the love you're sure will last
Why do you have to say it
Love has gone away

It's not like that
Love's not like that


[Chorus]
