Running
Jessie Ware (Disclosure Remix) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your words alone, could drive me to
A thousand tears,
All the same words, that kept me here
For all the years

I'm lost again, it's happening
When you're around I just go weak
All I wanna know, is it mutual
Then I never want to leave
Then I'm ready to run, ready to fall
Think I'm ready to loose it all
Then I'm ready to run, ready to fall
Think I'm ready to loose it all

Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running, you

Whoa, would you hold my hand like the air, it's so gently here
Never give up, never give up
Whoa, would you pull me closer and nobody knows we're there
No one can find us

I'm lost again, it's happening
When you're around I just go weak
All I wanna know, is it mutual
Then I never want to leave
Then I'm ready to run, ready to fall
Think I'm ready to loose it all
Then I'm ready to run, ready to fall
Think I'm ready to loose it all

Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running, you
You keep me, keep me running, me running

And I'm lost again, it's keep happening
But when I'm around you,
When I'm around you
I just go weak
And I wanna know, is it mutual
Am I'm ready to run, am I ready to fall?
I think I'm just ready to loose it all

Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running, you

Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running




Keep me running, you keep me running
Keep me running, you keep me running, you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Jessie Ware's "Running" reveal a complicated relationship where one person's words can evoke strong emotions in the other, and their presence makes them feel weak and uncertain. The singer seems to be craving a deeper connection, wondering if the mutual feeling is present so that they never want to leave the other person's side. At the same time, there is a conflict between wanting to remain safe and wanting to venture into the unknown.


With repeating the phrase, "Keep me running, you keep me running," the singer suggests that their partner is the driving force behind their running away (or towards) something in their life, whether it's physical or emotional. The song offers a glimpse into the intensity and unpredictability that comes with being in love and the fear of letting go of that person who makes you feel weak and alive at the same time.


Ultimately, "Running" is a song about the push and pull of a relationship, the fear of vulnerability and the thrill of taking a leap of faith, all tied together by the powerful force of love.
