V1 I'm gettin' frustrated with the way you deal with things You always withdraw from me, refuse to communicate I don't know how much more, more that I can take I've given all I can, tried to give you everything I've tried a thousand times To get you to be real with me You promise that you'll change That your priorities will rearrange But I'm tired of the games The silly way you play I share my heart with you In return all that you do isâŠ
Chorus: You just run away, just run away Nothing to offer, no words to say You just run away, just run away You don't deal with the problems at hand You just run away, just run away You don't connect With me you don't stay You just run away, you run away You cop out and you run away
V2 You took some time off, took some time "to think" But baby, behind my back I think you're playing games I waited by the phone for you to call today But it didn't ring, I guess you don't think of me when you're away You say you love me but your words and actions don't justify You just playin' with my heart, do the least to get by I can't take anymore of you runnin' out the door Babe, I gave all that I have, but you don't care cuz you just run away
Bridge: I ain't takin' this no more Gonna get out on my own Out on my own gonna settle the score I've played this game a thousand times But baby this time it's me who is breakin' the ties I've taken all I can, but no, no more
