Run Lyrics by Matt Nathanson

Modern Love

2011

[Verse 1: Matt Nathanson]
I wanna watch you undress
I wanna watch you glow
Let your hair down
All around and cover us both
You come in waves
We crash and we roll
You surround me, pull me, drown me, then swallow me whole

[Chorus: Matt Nathanson & Jennifer Nettles]
You turn, turn, turn, turning me on
Like a slow fire burn
I know that it's wrong
Still I run, run, run, run right into you
Yeah, I run, run, run, run right into you

[Refrain: Matt Nathanson]
Oh, oh, oh

[Verse 2: Jennifer Nettles & Matt Nathanson]
You pull me in close
You buckle my knees
I shake and I shiver just to feel you breathe
You trace my lines
I trace your lines
Stirring my soul
Shoot sparks at the heart of the world and I watch it explode
I watch you, yeah, I watch you

[Chorus: Matt Nathanson & Jennifer Nettles]
You turn, turn, turn, turning me on
Like a slow fire burn
I know that it's wrong
Still I run, run, run, run right into you
Yeah, I run, run, run, run right into you

[Refrain: Matt Nathanson]
Oh, oh, oh

[Bridge: Matt Nathanson & Jennifer Nettles]
I’m amazing (oh, oh, oh) when you’re beside me
(Oh, oh, oh)
I am so much more
(Oh, oh, oh)
And I feel your fingers
(Oh, oh, oh)
Pound like thunder
(Oh, oh, oh)
And I am so much more
I'm so much more

[Chorus: Matt Nathanson & Jennifer Nettles]
You turn, turn, turn, turning me on
Like a slow fire burn
I know that it's wrong
Still I run, run, run, run right into you, oh
Oh, you turn, turn, turn, turning me on
Like a slow fire burn
I know that it's wrong
Still I run, run, run, run right into you
(I run)
Still, I run, run, run, run right into you
(Oh love, oh Lord)
Still I run, run, run, run right back to you

[Outro: Matt Nathanson & Jennifer Nettles]
Turning me on
Like a slow fire burn
