Run Away

Lyrics

They met at school, that's how it goes
 Some drinks and then a rose
 Then plans to meet again
 He wrote her poems, songs, and prose
 She knew that he'd propose
 She only wondered when
 One night, before they went to bed
 He kneeled on both knees
 And this is what he said
 "I may not be wise
 And I won't save the day
 But look in my eyes
 And know I'll always stay
 And I won't run away
 I won't run away"
 ♪
 Some years went by, they had a child
 He was funny, strange, and mild
 Their love for him ran deep
 Some nights, his dreams would drive him wild
 So into bed, she piled
 To help him fall asleep
 One night, he couldn't get to bed
 So she kneeled on both knees
 And this is what she said
 "I may not be wise
 And I won't save the day
 But look in my eyes
 And know I'll always stay
 And I won't run away
 I won't run away"
 ♪
 You say it's safer on your own
 You'd rather sleep alone
 Than grow to need me there
 But I hope now you can see
 What my mom and dad showed me
 I'm not going anywhere
 I love you more and more each day
 To love is not to leave
 So, hear me when I say
 "I may not be wise
 And I won't save the day
 But look in my eyes
 And know I'll always stay
 And I won't run away"
 ♪
 I won't run away
