Run Dry - Civil Twilight

I got up and dusted off my running shoes

To see how far I could run away

I got up the hill and came down back again

And I blamed it all on you

The foolish things I do

I tried to leave you but I don’t know how

I try to give you up a thousand times

I told myself all kinds of foolish lies

But it’s your love that won’t run dry

I have looked down all those drinking wells

In some of them, I accidentally fell

But when I hit the bottom

All I came up with was a dry and empty shell

I tried to leave you but I don’t know how

I try to give you up a thousand times

I told myself all kinds of foolish lies

But it’s your love, that won’t run dry

I gave it in

I gave it all

I just don’t know anymore

I can’t take this

I just don’t know anymore

I tried to leave you but I don’t know how

I try to give you up a thousand times

Ooh, I tell myself all kinds of foolish lies

Oh, but it’s your love, it’s your love, that won’t run dry

I tried to leave you but I don’t know how, oh

I try to give you up a thousand times

Yes, I told myself all kinds of foolish lies

Oh, but it’s your love, it’s your love, that won’t run dry

Oh, it just won’t run, it just won’t run, dry, oh
