Run Away Back

Every time I let you go
You pull me right back in
Do you even know
What you want me to be
Have you figured it out
What do you want to be to me
We do everything we can
To avoid the fact that we're in love
You do that stupid thing where you fight
Fight all your feelings; and mine too
Got a new girl every time I see you
Then you tell me she's not the one
It just makes sense to me;
    I'm the one you need
Because you're always coming back
But then you always run away
Why do we keep playing this game
Why do we keep losing this game
We're getting nowhere
We get there faster & faster each day
In your eyes I can see my future
I can see my children
I can see my life
But then you always run away
And then you keep on coming back
