Runaway Lyrics by Capp Atlas

Runaway (Single)

2017

[Produced by Noc]
[Verse 1]
See, I been meaning to talk to you
But I been on some show-don't-tell shit
I said "I hope you're happy" and I meant that
Don't blame it on ya boy 'cause I can't help it
Show me, show me, show me what you're thinking
Rolling, rolling, rolling off the deep end
Workin' workin' on a way to fly, I'd
Make amends we don't seem to find time
Maybe we should make time, maybe I could show you
Maybe you should make me, maybe I'm supposed to
Maybe I ain't yours, just the one you make mistakes with
Maybe I was made for you, maybe you should face it
I can't hardly take you for a friend
But does it really matter in the end?
I can hardly see you through the smoke
You know it's over when I get you all alone
[Pre-Hook 1]
Put your hands in my hands and
I could see us dancin'
With your waist in line, and your vacant eyes
Just don't see me that way (oh, babygirl)
Why you so resistant
On handling this distance?
There's a real thin line between yours and mine
Making good love and good time
[Hook]
Don't tell me why you're strung so high
(Run away, run away, run away, run away, run away)
Don't tell me why your high so strong
Nights last long when your mind's past gone
And I might just need you in the light, girl I like that
I might just need you in my life, girl I like that
I might just need you in the light, girl I like that
Nevermind what we're dancing in spite of
[Verse 2]
Ain't no question, won't you push that back out
You love playin' like the boy don't have you mapped out
She inhale, then we blow that back out
I ain't one to pass on, and you ain't one to back down
I never meant to change the way you sing, babe
You mention me and danger in the same breath
I measure every moment in a two-step
I want you in your zone and in your new dress
Feel the, feel the, feel the, feel the fire
Steal my, steal my, steal my, steal my shine
It's your show
So gon' and let your friends know
Gon' and put your friends on
Gon' and let your hair down
Gon' and put your—
[Pre-Hook 2]
Put your hands in my hands and
I could see us dancin'
With your waist in line, and your vacant eyes
Just don't pay me no mind (oh, babygirl)
Why you so resistant
On handling this distance
There's a real thin line between yours and mine
Making good love and good time
Oh, my
[Hook]
Don't tell me why you're strung so high
(Run away, run away, run away, run away, run away)
Don't tell me why your high so strong
These nights last long when your mind's past gone
And I might just need you in the light, girl I like that
I might just need you in my life, girl I like that
I might just need you in the light, girl I like that
Nevermind what we're dancing in spite of
[Bridge]
Come right over, you look
So fine, so fine, hold on
Slow whine (slow whine), hands on
Both sides, both sides
Stop me if you've felt this before
She don't wanna play anymore
She said she need a place to stay
She been out late, she said she wanna run away
This just might be what you need (run away, run away)
So face the music with me (run away, run away)
This just might be what you need
And I know, I know you know
So face the music with me
And come put on a show
[Hook]
Don't tell me why you're strung so high
(Run away, run away, run away, run away, run away)
Don't tell me why your high so strong
These nights last long when your mind's past gone
And I might just need you in the light, girl I like that
I might just need you in my life, girl I like that
I might just need you in the light, girl I like that
Nevermind what we're dancing in spite of
[Outro]
You should run away
