Lyrics
Run Back Home
My time is fading away
And there's nothing left to say without you
Can't wait for another day
?Cos I miss you so much that I will
See you in my dreams again tonight
And I know tomorrow will find me
Cold and lost with no angel to guide me
I can't have you beside me
And my thin jokes don't hide me
I used to be fine on my own - yeah
But it's just no fun all alone - no
Why don't I run back home to you?
I drink your voice on the phone
And when I'm alone I dream of you
And all of my birds have flown
And I miss you so much that I will
See you in my dreams again tonight
And I know tomorrow will find me
Cold and lost with no angel to guide me
I can't have you beside me
And my thin jokes don't hide me
I used to be fine on my own - yeah
But it's just no fun all alone - no
Why don't I run back home to you, to you, to you?
