Song Description

Running for the Door was a different writing process for me. Usually, when I write a song both the words & the music come to me at the same time. The melody for Running for the Door was stuck in my head for months & I would just throw in the odd word here & there until finally it came to life. The song is basically a fun scenario of a jealous couple that lack trust in their relationship.

RUNNING FOR THE DOOR

Verse 1
wouldn?t you like to know
where I was an hour ago
wouldn?t you like to know
who I was talking to on the phone
wouldn?t you love to know
just let it go

Chorus
if I tell you my story
will you believe me this time
if I say that I?m sorry
you won?t change your sweet mind
if I give you one kiss
would you come running back for more
or will you be running for the door

Verse 2
I told you right from the start
you?re not the only one who?s had my heart
still you keep asking me
where are you going
who are you going to see
