[Verse 1]
Come closer now
I know your desire is to be desired
Steal a kiss, yeah, and call us friends
Distance is a thief in which you conspire

[Pre-Chorus]
Time and time and time will tell
Time will tell or tear us apart
You're miles and miles and miles away
Silence reveals where you really are

[Chorus]
You only stand to break my heart
I can tell it by the way you run away
Runaway girl
You only stayed to break my heart
I can tell it by the way you run away
Runaway girl
Runaway, runaway girl

[Verse 2]
It's clearer now
You're nowhere into giving
Giving into, giving into me
It's your fault
You're like a rare disease
I know you're in love
With love I believe
[Pre-Chorus]
Time and time and time will tell
Time will tell or tear us apart
You're miles and miles and miles away
Silence reveals where we really are

[Chorus]
You only stayed to break my heart
I can tell it by the way you run away
Runaway girl
You only stayed to break my heart
I can tell it by the way you run away
Runaway girl
Run away, runaway girl

[Bridge]
Do you expect me to wait here?
(All alone in my thoughts and fears)
My whole life could flash before your eyes
(Hope one day that you realize)
This isn't the way it's supposed to be
(This is your life, girl, now without me)
May regrets for us well up inside
(As feelings for you are buried alive)
Buried alive
[Chorus]
You only stand to break my heart
I can tell it by the way you run away
Runaway girl
You only stand to break my heart
I can tell it by the way you run away
Runaway girl
Run away, runaway girl
I only stand to break your heart
You can tell it by the way I walk away
Runaway girl
I only stand to break your heart
You can tell it by the way I run away
Runaway girl
