Run It By Me (feat. Eliot Porter) - Extended Version

I told her if she takes too much
 She'll end up like the rest of us
 And she's lying to my face now
 I told her baby take it slow
 But she knows all the guys I know
 And I'm jealous of her know-how
 And hey baby would you mind if I
 Take a second just to quantify my love
 Cause I know how you feel
 How you feel.
 And hey baby would you run it by me
 You're the one who should be close beside me
 'Cause I know how you feel
 I know how you feel
 The way that you light it
 You got that from me
 Cause you didn't earn that
 It's never for free
 I left it all behind.
 I left it all behind me
 I know that you saw me
 Acting a fool
 And you should have known
 It wasn't for you
 I left it all behind.
 I left it all behind me
 I told her not to lose control
 I paid the price for letting go
 I'm preaching but I know now
 I was only looking out for you
 I know just what you're going through
 And you need it to be told now
