Lyrics

Don't run and hide from the people
Don't run and hide from them all
Don't run and hide now
'Cause you're only hurting yourself
Ask me why and I'll tell you things
That you never heard now
About yourself what they're saying
I know that it will hurt you
Please fight back, it's important
How you accept their lies now
If you run, you condemn yourself
And they'll realise now
I know you be hurtin' me
'Cause I'm left on my own
And I've got them to face
Don't run and hide from the people
Don't run and hide from them all
Don't run and hide now
'Cause you're only hurting yourself
Stay with me, you'll convince them all
That it isn't true now
Be with me and we'll prove
Just how strong our love can be now
Please fight back, it's important
How you accept their lies now
If you run, you condemn yourself
And they'll realise now
Then you'll be hurtin' me
'Cause I'm left on my own
And I've got them to face
Don't run and hide from the people
Don't run and hide from them all
Don't run and hide now
'Cause you're only hurtin' yourself
Don't run and hide from the people
(Don't run and hide)
Don't run and hide from the people
(Don't run and hide)
Don't run and hide from the people
(Don't run and hide)
Don't run and hide from the people
