[Verse 1] It's the thought of you, that keeps me away
It's like a single voice, that I can't shake
And I'm shaking
And It's your tan skin, wrapped in a summer dress
And getting over you, At least I'm trying my best
Wish it was working

[Chorus] Why'd you have to run
Why'd you have to run
Why'd you have to run away?
(2x)
Was it too much for you to stay?
Yeah, why'd did you run away?

[Verse 2] Is it the feel of fate?
When my never tears
I guess I'm stuck with you
Until my heart gives,
And I hate it.
And so I crank it up, the radio
And let the sad songs scream out
Every note that I've been feeling

[Repeat Chorus]

Why'd you have to run,
Why'd you have to run,
Why'd you have to run away?
Why'd you have to run
Why'd you have to run
Why'd you have to run away?
Why'd you have to run
Why'd you have to run
Why'd you have to run away?
Was it too much for you to stay?
I said why did you run away?
