I watched out the window
As you drove away
But we got so much history, baby
Too much good love to throw away

I know I can be a headstrong man
Got a jealous streak a country mile wide
Its just that I'm so damn scared of losing you
As you're fading out of sight

Ooh, ooh, I don't why I do this every time
Ooh, ooh, run the other way from a heart like mine

I'm doing the same things
I saw my father do
'Cause I was just a kid in the corner
Watching words as they turned black and blue

I'm the son of a son of a headstrong man
So, defensive so full of foolish pride
But I just will not lose you, baby
And I'm starting to realize

Ooh, ooh, I think I know why I do this every time
Ooh, ooh, run the other way from a heart like mine

I know the love that we got is good
Can I be a better man, yeah, I know I could
Standing here in the middle of this moonlit road
I know just what I have to do

Ooh, ooh, I'm runnin' to ya fast as I can tonight
Ooh, ooh, gotta show you what its like, gotta show you what its like
To be loved, so loved by a heart like mine
Gonna wrap my arms around you as strong as young desire
'Cause for you it's all beating in a heart like mine
