But girl I'm running out of reasons to run.

Slowly I'm believing I'm where I'm s'posed to be

When you hold me I feel lonely to chase that setting sun
G D G
I'm running out of reasons to run.

There you stand smiling at me sunlight shining through your hair

But girl I'm running out of reasons to run
