I Ran From You

I ran from you to protect my heart Or at least I thought I'd try But little did I know back then Just exactly why Why run from what I feel inside Deep within my heart Instead of running towards the arms From which I'd never part It wasn't like we shared our lives Beyond the words we'd say We'd steal a kiss here and there And then we'd walk away Then I might not pass your way again For quite a long, long time Repressing all my feelings strong I hoped to in my mind It never worked as I had hoped But why hope this anyway Cause I've felt this way for many years And doubt I'll ever change The reasons to not feel for you Were just covered with the lies That I continually told myself Why did I ever try Cause no matter how, I think that I Could push our fates away I still wish that we were one To this very day
