Running Back to You (album version) Lyrics
Let's go.
Break!
Boy, you've been running around too long
And I think that you're running out of time.
No more jumping in and out of bed.
It's time for me to draw the line.
So you think that you can call me the only one,
Then walk out the door.
And you think that you can run around having fun
And then come back for more.
I think that you're living in a fantasy.
It's gotta be them or me.
So if you try it one more time,
Baby, don't expect me to come running back,
Running back to you.
Then you'll think about love, all the good love I gave to you.
I won't come running, running back to you.
And I'll find someone, somebody else to give it to.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh.
I won't come running back.
I won't come running.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh.
I won't come running back.
I won't come running.
Boy, hope you see before too late.
I won't play the fool, no, not this time.
I'll show you just how wrong you are
To think I just can't get you off my mind.
So you think that you can just play me off,
Then walk out the door.
And you think that you can run around having fun
And then come back for more.
I think that you're living in a fantasy.
It's gotta be them or me.
And if you diss me once more,
Baby, don't expect me to come running back,
Running back to you.
Then you'll think about love, all the good love I gave to you.
I won't come running, running back to you.
And I'll find someone, somebody else to give it to.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh.
I won't come running back,
I won't come running.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh.
I won't come running back,
I won't come running.
You can't just diss me when you wanna (Diss me when you wanna)
Or come and go when you wanna. (Come and go when you wanna)
I hear you're playing around when you wanna (Around when you wanna)
Anytime that you wanna. (Oh, oh, oh, oh.)
Or just tell me lies when you wanna. (Tell me lies when you wanna)
I got more than you wanna.
Oh, and by the way, this one's for you.
I won't come running back,
I won't come running.
No.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
I won't come running back, no.
I won't come running.
(Oh, oh.) Running, running, running, running.
Running, running, running.
I won't come running, running back to you.
Then you'll think about love, all the good love I gave to you.
I won't come running, running back to you.
And I'll find someone, somebody else to give it to.
Oh no, I won't come running back,
I won't come running.
No, oh, no.
I won't come running back,
I won't come running. (Oh, oh.)
(Running back to you) No, no, no.
Get the message?
Enough said.
