Runnin' Lyrics

Artist: Jesse McCartney
Album: Departure

Runnin away, ay ay
Runnin away

I had the perfect girl
We'd spend together, hours everyday
And say that I had it made (made)
And I was off of the commitment
But then she started wantin more from me
And my mind began to change
Suddenly I didn't feel the same (same)
I didn't know what I was doin

I was dodging commitment
Start but don't finish
My aim's always the same girl
I know I've been trippin
I'm confessin, I'm confessin so baby just hear me out
I'm confessin, I'm confessin so baby just hear me out
I want to show my heart but I don't know where to start

So I keep runnin
With real love in my face
Why am I breakin away
I keep runnin
So scared that my heart break
So scared of makin mistakes
When all I really need is you
All I really need is you
But I keep on, runnin away
Runnin away, ay ay ay

I caught a second wind of happiness
When I met this girl and then
We became the best of friends (friends)
We went from half full to half empty
I took a detour tryin to find myself
But I'm on this road again
Want out of this box I'm in
I made it harder to be with me

I was dodging commitment
Start but don't finish
My aim's always the same girl
I know I've been trippin
I'm confessin, I'm confessin so baby just hear me out
I'm confessin, I'm confessin so baby just hear me out
I want to show my heart but I don't know where to start

So I keep runnin
With real love in my face
Why am I breakin away
I keep runnin
So scared that my heart break
So scared of makin mistakes
When all I really need is you
All I really need is you
But I keep on, runnin away
Runnin away, ay ay ay

I'm bout to break down baby I'm done
No I can't, keep up runnin (runnin)
This marathon (this marathon)
No need to race when I've already won
And if I got you by my side
Then I already won
It's like looking for a treasure when it's already mine
It don't make sense, don't make sense
No matter how hard I try to define
I'm coming face to face with myself (self)
I know I don't need, don't need no one else (else)
So can somebody tell me where I'm going (going)
So can somebody tell me where I'm going

I keep runnin
With real love (hey) in my face
Why am I breakin away (Why)
I keep runnin
So scared that my heart break
So scared of makin mistakes
When all I really need is you (You're all I need)
All I really need is you (You're all I need)
But I keep on,(oh) runnin away
Runnin away

So I keep runnin (ay ay)
With real love in my face
Why am I breakin away
I keep runnin (runnin away)
So scared that my heart break
So scared of makin mistakes
When all I really need is you (all I need)
All I really need is you (said all I need)
But I keep on, runnin away
Runnin away, hey ay ay

Runnin away
Runnin away hey ay ay

Runnin away
Runnin away hey ay ay
