I see pain in so many eyes
I hear stories, cover-ups and lies
I am a phoney, I am a fake
I am a soldier for your soul to take
And if you run, run away
And if you fly, don't you come down
Oh, I've been searching for something
And I searched all wrong
But now I see you
I looked for beauty in all the wrong places
I studied the lines of too many faces
I mistook love for hungry lust
And I ignored every clue that you were enough
So if you run, run away
If you fly, don't you come down
Oh, I've been searching for something
And I searched all wrong
But now I see you
Only now, only love will let you go
Some say love, it is a river
Some say love is the razor that makes you bleed
But I say love, it is a decision
Oh, it's knowing when to stay and when to leave
So if you run, run away
If you fly, don't you dare come down
And if you love another
I hope you know I was wrong
