i don′t wanna go where the lovers go
like we did when you were mine
and this crying all the time
it ain′t no fun
when i gotta run
and i don′t wanna hear you on the other line
saying "babe, i′ll let you go"
′cause the one thing that i know
is that i′m done
and i gotta run
′cause he don′t love you like i do
((no way))
and i can′t chase you anymore
today
what can i say? i got a problem
all i wanna do is just run to you
i don′t wanna get into a million fights
like we did when we went out
only stupid people shout
about something
that is burning out
so i don′t wanna see you on the fire escape
on the hottest august night
′cause these memories, sharp and bright
stick in my lungs
when i gotta run
so i′ll have the girls you hate get in my car
and i′ll make ′em think that i′m a superstar
and i′ll drive to the place we used to
sit by the sea
-where we screamed-
you and me
