How I Ran Lyrics

I don't worry about you anymore

I don't run and lock my door

Hold my breath and sit real still

Hoping, praying only you will 

Go away, don't turn the knob

Only makes me feel like I'm not

Doing everything I can

And, I guess that's why I ran



So, we don't talk much anymore

Sometimes less only means that much more

Use to be I'd say the first thing to come along

But, then again anything I'd say, I'd say wrong



Nothin' mean meant by anything I say

Sure am sorry if I ever made it sound that way

I do only the best I can

And, I guess that's why I ran



You say I don't listen to you anymore

You say you feel like you are ignored

You say so much sometimes, it's more than I can understand

You said I couldn't, so I said "Oh, yes I can!"



But, if I fall, will you pick me up

Dust off my knees and give me a little nudge

And, if I ever need you again you just say

"You know where I am" I ran!



At least we don't argue anymore

Well, is that why they call that thing, there, "love and war"

'Cause in the end nobody won

Just threw up our hands and said, "well, guess we're done"



Hey, would you go back if you could

No, I don't think so, things are looking perty good

We're too old, we would not stand a chance

Besides, we've got big plans, and with that I ran



I ran, how I ran

I ran as fast

Oh, as a Gearle can

I ran, how I ran
