Nowhere to Run
Love's Dilemma: A Soulful Journey Through Heartache
Lyrics
It's not love, I'm running from
Running from the pain and heartache, not from love itself.
But the heartache I know will come
Anticipating the inevitable pain that comes with the relationship.
'Cause I know you're no good for me
Acknowledging that the person is not good for the singer.
But you become a part of me
Despite knowing the harm, the person has become an integral part of the singer.
Everywhere I go your face I see
The person's presence is pervasive, haunting the singer everywhere.
Every step I take you take with me, no
Every step taken is accompanied by thoughts of the person.
Nowhere to run, baby
Expressing a feeling of being trapped with no escape.
Nowhere to hide
Feeling exposed and vulnerable with no place to hide.
Got nowhere to run to, baby
Emphasizing the lack of escape from the challenging relationship.
Nowhere to hide
Reiterating the theme of having nowhere to hide.
I know you're no good for me
Acknowledging the detrimental nature of the relationship.
But free of you I'll never be, no
The difficulty of breaking free from the person.
Each night as I sleep
Reference to the intrusion of thoughts even during sleep.
Into my heart you creep
Emphasizing the invasive nature of the person into the singer's heart.
I wake up feeling sorry I met you
Regretting the encounter with the person upon waking up.
Hopin' soon that I'll forget you
Expressing a hope to forget the person soon.
When I look in the mirror to comb my hair
Seeing the person's influence even in mundane activities like combing hair.
I see your face and smiling there, no
The person's presence is reflected in the singer's own image.
Nowhere to run
Reiterating the theme of having nowhere to run or hide.
Nowhere to hide
Stating the lack of escape from the emotional turmoil.
I got nowhere to run to, baby
Highlighting the absence of a safe place in the relationship.
Nowhere to hide
Repeating the sentiment of having nowhere to hide.
I know you're no good for me
Acknowledging the harmful nature of the person, yet being unable to let go.
But you've become a part of me, no
The person has become an inseparable part of the singer.
How can I find a lover?
Pondering the difficulty of finding a new love.
That should love be
Questioning the nature of love and its depth.
When it's so deep, so deep
Love is described as deeply embedded inside the singer.
Deep inside of me
Highlighting the profound impact of love on the singer.
My love reaches so high I can't get over it
Describing the overwhelming and unescapable nature of love.
It's so wide I can't get around it, no
Love's magnitude is depicted as both high and wide, emphasizing its all-encompassing nature.
Nowhere to run to, baby
Reiterating the theme of having nowhere to run from the person.
Nowhere to hide
Stating the inability to hide from the person.
I just can't get away from you, baby
Expressing the struggle to distance oneself from the person.
No matter how I try
Despite efforts, there is no escape from the person.
I know you're no good for me
Recognizing the detrimental impact of the person on the singer.
But free of you I'll never be
The difficulty of being free from the person's influence.
Each night as I see your face
Nightly confrontation with the person's image.
I know you're a part of me
Acknowledging that the person is an inseparable part of the singer.
But so deep, so deep and
Describing the depth of the connection with the person.
No, no
Rejecting the possibility of escape.
I just can't get away from you, baby

No matter how hard I try
Despite earnest attempts, escaping the person remains elusive.
Nowhere to run to, babe

Nowhere to run to, babe
