Lyric Why Ain t I Running
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]
