Don’t run away
Please stay by my side
This has been a nice respite
Don’t run, run away tonight
I may tell you that I love you
Long before I do
It’s just a means of testing the spell
I think I have over you
I hope you think that I mean it
I hope you feel that it’s true
I hope you buy the lines so from here on out
I can know more than you
One month stands
I take in stride
Got no intention of taking on a great big ride
Won’t play my hand
Start to confide
All I want is to have you by my side
No matter how you react
I can protect against what you do
If you reject you confirm my doubts
And if you accept I at least have someone to use
These one month stands
A nice short ride
Not much for me to lay back and sit and guide
No great demands
No shifting tides
Tell you I love you and then I’ll go duck and hide
I’ve done this before
And I’ve always been fine
I’ve never truly been hurt
And no one has ever gotten inside
Don’t run away
Please stay by my side
This has been a nice respite
Don’t run, run away tonight
