The Running

Lyrics

[Verse 1] See from my point of view I was miles ahead from anybody else Yeah, yeah Turns out I was never alone in this race For your body and yourself, mh And again and again, let my heart Beat for you and then you broke it on the floor Sweat me under the table Close up and you never open the door [Chorus] It's a shame that you didn't let me know I wasn't even in the running, no There's someone else you're holding onto, now But you kept me around, you kept me It's a shame that you didn't let me know I wasn't even in the running, no There's someone else you're holding onto, now But you kept me around, mhm, you kept me [Verse 2] Hangin' on the words when you didn't need them though Holdin' on for lie, one of us should've taken slow Turning off the lights, letting you become a ghost I should've been careful, I should've been careful [Chorus] It's a shame that you didn't let me know I wasn't even in the running, no There's someone else you're holding onto, now But you kept me around, you kept me It's a shame that you didn't let me know I wasn't even in the running, no There's someone else you're holding onto, now But you kept me around, mhm, you kept me [Bridge] And I tried, tired, tired to keep up with you 'Cause I could have been what you wanted And I lie, lie, lie when I say I'm over you 'Cause I'm not over you, no, I'm not [Chorus] It's a shame that you didn't let me know I wasn't even in the running, no There's someone else you're holding onto, now But you kept me around, you kept me It's a shame that you didn't let me know I wasn't even in the running, no There's someone else you're holding onto, now But you kept me around, mhm, you kept me It's a shame that you didn't let me know I wasn't even in the running
