Ready To Run
Direction One Lyrics

There's a lightning in your eyes I can't deny
I can't ignore the attraction I feel towards you, it's too intense

Then there's me inside a sinking boat, running out of time
I feel like I'm drowning in my own problems and running out of time to solve them

Without you I'll never make it out alive
I need you in my life to survive and thrive

But I know, yes I know we'll be alright
Despite everything, I have faith that we will make it through together

There's a devil in your smile, it's chasing me
Your smile is tempting and alluring, but I know it's dangerous for me

And every time I turn around it's only gaining speed
I feel like the temptation is getting stronger and more difficult to resist

There's a moment when you finally realize
At some point you come to a realization

There's no way you can change the rolling tide
Some things are beyond your control and cannot be changed

But I know, yes I know that I'll be fine
Despite the difficulties ahead, I am confident that I will be okay

This time I'm ready to run (oh-oh)
I am finally ready to take action and make a change in my life

Escape from the city and follow the sun
I want to leave behind my current situation and start fresh somewhere else

'Cause I wanna be yours
I want to be in a committed relationship with you

Don't you wanna be mine?
Do you feel the same way about me?

I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night
I don't want to be alone and lost in a difficult situation

Wherever you are is the place I belong
You are my home and I feel most comfortable around you

'Cause I wanna be free
I want to live my life on my own terms and be independent

And I wanna be young
I want to enjoy my youth and have fun while I can

I will never look back, now I'm ready to run
I am committed to moving forward and leaving my past behind

There's a future in my life I can't foresee
I don't know what the future holds for me, it's uncertain

Unless of course I stay on course
As long as I stick to my goals and work hard, I can achieve success

And keep you next to me
Having you in my life will give me the motivation and support I need to succeed

There will always be the kind that criticize
There will always be people who try to bring me down or doubt me

This time I'm ready to run (ready to run)
I am more than prepared to take action and follow through on my plans

I'd give everything that I got for your love
I am willing to make sacrifices and put in the effort to be with you because I love you
