Runnin'
Chasing Love's Shadows: A Tale of Yearning and Regret
Lyrics
You're runnin', you're runnin' around my mind
You are constantly on my mind, occupying my thoughts.
Come here sit down, let's kill some time
Let's spend time together, engaging in activities to pass the time.
I'm fallin', I'm fallin' yeah every time
I am emotionally falling, experiencing a sense of descent, likely in love.
Guess I just missed the warning signs
I failed to notice or heed the warning signs in our relationship.
I hope someday
Expressing hope for a future day when a deeper love is found.
I find that love they talk about, but today is not that day
Acknowledging that today is not the day to find the talked-about love.
I know one way
Confidently stating a strategy or mindset to cope and declare well-being at age 22.
I'll make it through, turn twenty-two and say that I'm okay
Believing that turning 22 will bring assurance and the ability to proclaim emotional stability.
But it's just on my mind I guess, like all the time
Constantly preoccupied with thoughts, suggesting an ongoing internal struggle.
That you're the one I want the most
Expressing a strong desire for the person being addressed.
Would you be mine
Posing a question about the potential of a romantic relationship.
Would you be mine
Repeating the question, emphasizing the desire for a positive response.
You're runnin', you're runnin' around my mind
Reiterating the impact of someone being on the speaker's mind constantly.
Come here sit down, let's kill some time
Inviting the person to spend time together again.
I'm fallin', I'm fallin' yeah every time
Repeating the emotional descent and expressing a strong attraction.
Guess I just missed the warning signs
Acknowledging the oversight of missing warning signs in the past.
Just stay today and we'll see it through
Suggesting a commitment to stay together today and overcome challenges.
Can we make it past twenty-two
Pondering the possibility of sustaining the relationship beyond the age of 22.
You're runnin', you're runnin' around my mind
Reiterating the persistent thoughts of the person running in the speaker's mind.
Come here sit down, let's kill some time
Inviting the person to share time together again, reinforcing connection.
I'm so afraid
Expressing fear about the potential loss of what has been built in the relationship.
To lose all that we've made
Communicating difficulty in finding the right words to say goodbye.
I'll never find the words to say goodbye today
Continuing the struggle to express emotions and reluctance to bid farewell.
I'm so afraid
Reiterating the fear of potential loss and the struggle with goodbyes.
I took more than I gave
Acknowledging imbalance in the give-and-take dynamics of the relationship.
Been such a fool in love to watch you walk away
Expressing regret for being foolish in love, resulting in the other person walking away.
I'm so afraid
Reiterating the fear of potential loss and the struggle with goodbyes.
To lose all that we've made
Continuing the struggle to express emotions and reluctance to bid farewell.
I'll never find the words to say goodbye today
Reiterating the fear of potential loss and the struggle with goodbyes.
I'm so afraid
Continuing the struggle to express emotions and reluctance to bid farewell.
I took more than I gave
Acknowledging imbalance in the give-and-take dynamics of the relationship.
I've never loved someone this way
Expressing an unprecedented level of love for someone.
You're runnin', you're runnin' around my mind
Reiterating the impact of someone being on the speaker's mind constantly.
Come here sit down, let's kill some time
Inviting the person to spend time together again.
I'm fallin', I'm fallin' yeah every time
Repeating the emotional descent and expressing a strong attraction.
Guess I just missed the warning signs
Acknowledging the oversight of missing warning signs in the past.
Just stay today and we'll see it through
Suggesting a commitment to stay together today and overcome challenges.
Can we make it past twenty-two

You're runnin', you're runnin' around my mind
