Stop Runnin' Away From My Love

Mid-November morning
 I'm running down the stairs
 You've got me going crazy
 Trying to catch up to you
 If you're leaving me for good
 I won't talk you back this time
 You better make up
 your mind
 If you're his or your mine
 Won't you treat me like a good girl should?
 You put a spell on me baby
 You turned my body inside out
 The summer's gone and the sugar too
 I bet the little bird is heading south
 Stop running away from my love
 Runaway girl
 Where you running from?
 I'm a patient man but I've had enough
 Won't you stop running away from my love?
 Ahhh never trust a good thing if she's tasting much too sweet
 That's what my mama used to warn me
 Lord knows but your lovin's knocked me to my knees
 You put a spell on me baby
 You turned my body inside out
 Now the summer's gone and the sugar too
 I bet the little girl is heading south
 Ohhh stop running away from my love
 Runaway girl
 Where you running from?
 I'm a patient man but I've had enough
 Won't you stop running away from my love?
 I'm a fool for the chase baby
 Oh yeah but someday you know I'm gonna slow down
 Don't let my love go to waste babe
 You're getting ready, ready for the showdown
 You put a spell on me baby
 You turned my body inside out
 Now the summer's gone and the sugar too
 Oh I bet the little girl is heading south
 Ohhh yeah yeah stop running away from my love
 Runaway girl
 Where you running from?
 I'm a patient man but I've had enough
 You better stop running away from my love
 Stop running away from my love
 Runaway girl where you running from?
 I'm a patient man but I've had enough
 You better stop running away from my love
 Stop running baby...
