Why Ain`t I Running Lyrics

I can hear

 That highway calling

 As I watch the sunrise

 Crawling across her shoulder

 This is usually goodbye

 And yet those words

 I just can't find here

 As I hold her

 She's like no other woman

 That I have known before

 And it ain't me to

 See the morning sun

 From this side of the door

 

 [CHORUS:]

 Why ain't I running?

 Why ain't I gone?

 How does she hold me

 Without holding on?

 In love or a fight

 She's stronger than strong

 Something's not right

 If there ain't nothing wrong

 It's got me wondering

 Why ain't I running?

 Why ain't I gona?

 

 All those words

 I left behind me

 Praying they would never

 Find me and my freedom

 But if they stood

 Right here beside me

 They would never recognise me

 For all that she's done

 

 Once happiness was only

 Whenever I was on my own

 So now why do I feel lonely

 Any time that I'm alone

 

 [Repeat chorus]

 

 No, they've never built

 A wall that high

 Or made a chain that strong

 And God ain't never

 Made a place

 I felt like I belong

 

 [Repeat chorus]
