Bananarama - The Runner lyrics

How many times have I felt down inside? The Need to be loved by you! I wanted to show you how good it could be, If you would only show a little interest in me. You came into my life and turned my head around And just as quickly you put me down, Now you don't wanna know what I'm going through 'Cause just like I said, it means nothing to you! Oh, oh, oh I've got this need eating away at my soul An insurmountable need that I just can't control You created this fire, when the flame got too hot You turned and walked away, just leaving me on the spot! Yes you run, you just won't show love That's the thing you're frightened of Oh, oh, oh Fire! Fire! There's little hope but the fool that I am, Still holding on to this dream of a man The taste of his skin, the gentle touch of his hand Is worth waiting for, so I must understand. But you run, you just won't show love That's the thing you're frightened of But you run, you just won't show love That's the thing you're frightened of! But you run, you just won't show love That's the thing you're frightened of! I've got this need eating away at my soul, An insurmountable need that I just can't control! You created this fire, when the flame got too hot You turned and walked away, just leaving me on the spot! Yes you run, you just won't show love That's the thing you're frightened of Oh, oh, oh He's a runner, he's a runner Running away, running away, running away He's a runner, just running away! He's a runner, he's a runner. He's a runner, he's a runner.
