Run, Connie, Run

You're like a planted flag sleeping on my moon-white sheets Or like a pop-up ad for something that I think I need You tell me that you're only dream Is to settle with a boy like me But even though my blood is red I hear a voice inside my head going Run, Connie, run, Connie, don't look back She ain't the one for you Move, Connie, move, Connie, just let go You ain't got time to lose I wouldn't call it love--more like it's a kind of rope That wants to tie me up so I don't have to feel alone Who's to say that it ain't hip If you're happy on your sinking ship I like it when you're in my bed But that don't kill the voices in my head going Run, Connie, run, Connie, don't look back She ain't the one for you Move, Connie, move, Connie, just let go You ain't got time to lose Run, Connie, run, boy Run, Connie, run, boy Run, Connie, run, Connie, don't look back She ain't the one for you Move, Connie, move, Connie, just let go You ain't got time to lose Now I know it ain't easy We've shared love... we've made love... and that ain't nothin, girl But, sometimes the sweetest thing is just sweet for a time It's not sweet forever I got everything I need now I got everything I need now Run, Connie, run, boy Run, Connie, run, boy
