Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tell me, can you love me longer?
Will you stick around?
If I tell you that I need space
Promise not to overcomplicate
I just need to be found
And if I miss you, it’ll change the way I kiss you
I don’t wanna bore you but I’m running out of things to say
I’m running toward my doubt
I’m running, running, running, running
But all this running’s gonna bring me home to you
Miles apart but I don’t mind it
Love me from afar and find me
Falling deeper, deeper into you
Baby choose your moments wisely
Less is more, it’s so enticing
Stronger than we’ve ever been before
And if I miss you, it’ll change the way I kiss you
I don’t wanna bore you but I’m running out of things to say
I’m running from myself
I’m running toward my doubt
I’m running, running, running, running
But all this running’s gonna bring me home to you
And if I miss you, it’ll change the way I kiss you
I don’t wanna bore you but I’m running out of things to say
I’m running from myself
I’m running toward my doubt
I’m running, running, running, running
But all this running’s gonna bring me home to you
