when I was 8 16 and 22 I did what I was born to do
I ran I ran I ran from everything I knew
and sitting here in front of you I cannot do what I want to
my mind is blank my legs are numb I'm stuck

and so I pray to you to be what you shown yourself to be
self absorbed and carefree
I gave my all and all I've got to show is
pain and time lost but still I fight for us

and if I'd do what I would do at 10 18 and 22
I'd run away from you so fast you'd never know me but my back
but here I lie in yr embrace your arms are where I want to be
you're on my mind I think about you all the time

oh I ache for you
oh my hearts beats for you
oh every word you say breaks my heart into a million steps to take
