Running (Back To You) Lyrics by Esme Emerson

S for Sugar, D for Dog

2022

[Intro: Esme]
Running, running
Running, running, running
Drumming, drumming, drumming
Running back to you
Running, running
I keep on running, running
Running back to something, something
I'm running back to you
Running, running
You keep me running, running
Running, heartbeat drumming, drumming
I'm running back to you
[Verse 1: Esme]
Chasing the light
Chasing a version of me that only I can see
You said it's something I could become
The picking up all the pieces
Counting your favorite features
And nothing alike, got so many steps to take
Not long until I break
You said it's right in front of me
But I cannot seem to reach it
I'm chasing a lost idea
[Chorus: Esme & Emerson]
Don't know where I'm going but I'm running
I won't take it back, I'll have nothing
Don't know why it's you I put my trust in
But I'm running back to you
Chasing after something
I won't take it back, I'll have nothing
Don't know why it's you I put my trust in
But I'm running back to you
[Verse 2: Esme]
Losing daylight but I'll make the effort for you
Scuff up the soles on my shoes
You said it took a toll on me
All I have left is weakness
All your realest favorite features
[Chorus: Esme & Emerson]
Don't know where I'm going but I'm running
I won't take it back, I'll have nothing
Don't know why it's you I put my trust in
But I'm running back to you
Chasing after something
I won't take it back, I'll have nothing
Don't know why it's you I put my trust in
But I'm running back to you
[Refrain: Esme]
Running, running
I keep on running, running
Running back to something, something, something
Running back to you
Running, running
You keep me running, running
Running, heartbeat drumming, drumming, drumming
Running back to you
[Chorus: Esme & Emerson]
Don't know where I'm going but I'm running
I won't take it back, I'll have nothing
Don't know why it's you I put my trust in
But I'm running back to you
Chasing after something
I won't take it back, I'll have nothing
Don't know why it's you I put my trust in
But I'm running back to you
[Bridge: Esme & Emerson]
I can't pretend to be okay
Can't bear no teeth, can't drive the rain
And I thought you said, I'd be okay
But I just want to run away
[Outro: Esme]
Running, running
Running, running, running
Drumming, drumming, drumming
