LONG WAY FROM RUNNIN’ OUT

 
You’ve got tears in your eyes you think I can’t see
How you turn your head as if it doesn’t show
And as hard as I might try just to put your mind at ease
I can see you think I’m gone but it just aint so
So I’m gonna take you down memory lane
We’re gonna stop and smell some roses on the way
Cause you and me we’ve had some good times
I will not let them go
And I believe there’s bound to be a brighter day
So you’ve got to take stoke of the love between us two
Because I’m a long way from runnin’ out on you
 
It’s like someone hurt you bad and you’re afraid it’s come again
But I have not had the chance to prove you wrong
And whatever my transgressions from without and within
Hey you can sail it down the river for a song
Cause nobody’s gonna take you away from me
Without kickin’ and screamin’ down a dusty road
I don’t know who you’ve been talkin’ to
What’s got in your mind
How you think I could let you down I’ll never know
Come on, wake up to the real world it’s true
See I’m a long way from runnin’ out on you
 
Hey, I’m a long – a long from runnin’ out – a long way from runnin’ out
Hey, I’m a long – a long from runnin’ out – a long way from runnin’ out
 
So why don’t you come with me, I’ll take your load
And you can rest your weary heart inside mine
I don’t need much more I’m certain
Just a sunny day or two
And we could have it all just a ways down the line
Take a step on faith, it’s the least you could do
Because I’m a long way from runnin’ out on you
I’m a long way from runnin’ out on you
