Heart on the Run

I left home at seventeen To find my way in the world and who I was meant to be But somehow all these places took the better part of me Until I met you I had given my best years Held your broken heart through my blood and tears The lies that we all tell ourselves haunt us through our fears Of the truth But if the world should end tonight I would want you by my side Just for one more chance to take All of this heartbreak And wrong I've done From a heart on the run And I got tired of the West I got tired of only giving second best Trying to find a way to get the world up off my chest Without you But if the world should end tonight I'd want you by my side Just for one more chance to take All of this heartbreak And wrong I've done From this heart on the run And through these years of dust and dirt The loneliness, the past It's the truth that I see stretch for miles And there is only one thing that I've found that would last It's the look that I see in your eyes If the world should end tonight I'd want you by my side Just for one more chance to take All of this heartbreak And wrong I've done From a heart on the run I know you're going to take All of this heartbreak and wrong I've done From a heart on the run
