Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Only one who stay all on my mind
Yeah im running right next to you baby, yeah
And I hardly ever mind
Stay taking my time
Only one who stay all on my mind
Yeah im running right next to you baby, yeah
And I hardly ever mind
Only one who stay all on my mind
Yeah im running right next to you baby, yeah
And I hardly ever mind
Yeah, not sure what to do, but
Call it a jog, call it a race, yeah
Calling me names what am I fake, never that
I must say though baby, I really missed you today
And that apartment looking lonely with no furniture baby
Quite bare, I'll spare you the sob story, odd cutting ties in a selfish pursuit of glory
Isolated car rides, you know everyone of my lines
More I, stare through them eyes harder it is to be fine
And I'm guilty of falling back, miss talking my shit
But ain't no pitstop failing in my race for your bliss
I'm on my way just wait, no interfering with fate
You see this marathon forever so we'll work on the pace because ya
Stay taking my time
Only one who stay all on my mind
Yeah im running right next to you baby, yeah
And I hardly ever mind

I know that when you look at me
There's so much that you just don't see
But if you would only take the time
I know in my heart you'd find
A girl who's scared sometimes
Who isn't always strong
Can't you see the hurt in me?
I feel so all alone
I wanna run to you (oooh)
I wanna run to you (oooh)
Won't you hold me in your arms
And keep me safe from harm
I want to run to you (oooh)
But if I come to you (oooh)
Tell me, will you stay or will you run away
Each day, each day I play the role
Of someone always in control
But at night I come home and turn the key
There's nobody there, no one cares for me
What's the sense of trying hard to find your dreams
Without someone to share it with
Tell me what does it mean?
I wanna run to you (oooh)
I wanna run to you (oooh)
Won't you hold me in your arms
And keep me safe from harm
I want to run to you (oooh)
But if I come to you (oooh)
Tell me, will you stay or will you run away
I need you here
I need you here to wipe away my tears
To kiss away my fears
If you only knew how much
I wanna run to you (oooh)
I wanna run to you (oooh)
Won't you hold me in your arms
And keep me safe from harm
I want to run to you (oooh)
But if I come to you (oooh)
Tell me, will you stay or will you run away
