Runaway

I miss the way it used to be Back when it was only you and me Back when all this stuff was new to me And you could see the brute in me and knew just what I grew to be Back when labels were pursuing me Back when bigger fish were suing me Back before I had this jewelry Before I thought I’d love again, who could have guessed that you would be The one to prove me wrong, right? Now I think about it all night All the times we had together when there Were no others better and now everything is gone like The times that I was rapping Every day and you would stay and we were writing songs and laughing I stopped working and you didn’t which pulled us down separate paths and Now I ask myself a thousand times how I ever let it happen I still remember that one month of May I said I’d move out there, we’d run L.A. You said don’t come unless you come to stay I realized then we weren’t just fun and play Now I don’t know how, but I want to say That I’m sorry for giving up, I pray That maybe “us” will see another day Maybe someday we can runaway When we met we were so flushed with lust But we knew deep down we mustn't rush And let our love become too tough to rust But time became presumptuous Then a day was like a month to us But we’d count those days and just adjust I guess the lives we lived caught up to us I guess that time was not enough to trust You know I know that I was wrong, right? Now I think about it all night I know this song won’t bring you back to me Or get a face to face with you, but chances are a call might So I practice what I’d say to you But to be honest I’m afraid of you Afraid to face the face I left confused and address the muse That stole my heart and took my dreams and made them true I still remember that one month of May I said I’d move out there, we’d run L.A. You said don’t come unless you come to stay I realized then we weren’t just fun and play Now I don’t know how, but I want to say That I’m sorry for giving up, I pray That maybe “us” will see another day Maybe someday we can runaway Do you remember that one month of May That I moved out here to run L.A. With you and told you that I’d come to stay? But all I did was just have fun and play I was afraid, but I just want to say That losing you has ripped me up, I pray That I’ll be seeing you another day ’Til then I’ll close my eyes and runaway *phone ringing* *phone ringing* Hello?
