“Let Me Run”

Michael Lemon ©

Intro:

Ohhhh, ohh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhh…we all need to run….

Verse:

I change my name creating oceans of blue

Take time to laugh at myself over you

May be romantic and a bit insecure

We got choices, I choose to ignore

“Byron” knew ‘bout the way that she walks

Absence of pride, whenever we talk

Five bucks for coffee and a letter from you

Was our story loosely based on the truth?

Pre-Chorus

Based on the truth….

Our love story loosely based on the truth….

Chorus:

Let me run, don’t try to tie these hands

Let me run, that’s what this soul demands

Still waters, can run so deep

So let me run, I need this release

Let me run  (….just let me run)

Verse:

Hand in the fire, with a fist to the sky

Prayers were answered, but they turned into lies

Stars don’t fade, but they laugh at the fool

Makes an entrance and he turns on cue

I’ll stir the fire just to keep it alive

My desire with your mysterious side 

Dusted off things I thought I knew (Cause)

The box was open when you buried the truth….
 

Pre-Chorus:

Burried the truth….

Why did you show me just to burry the truth….
 

REPEAT CHORUS
 

Verse:

Write to my demons that sleep deep inside 

Postcards and daggers feel so much alike

Drink laced in poison to quench my thirst

& I had seconds to make matters worse

Pre Chorus:

Make matters worse

Love knows just how to make matters worse….

REPEAT CHORUS & FADE
