Why did you run so far

Come back all this time wasted

Take a deep breath
Turn around and now your gone

Further away you run from me the more I want you stay
Never really wanted it like this but your always breaking away
Where will you go what will you do with out me there for you....

(come back back back to me back, come back back to me again)

Come back all this time wasted

Nothing left here but a whisper
Confused for way to long

Your gone but I m still standing here
So much we did not say
Why did you run from me girl why did you run away
Where will you go what will you do with out me there for you....
(come back back back to me back, comeback back to me again)

Here standing here watching the tide
The crashing
Breathe holding everything inside
Tears drown those eyes
Leave it all behind

Why did you run so far

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
