I Ran Away From Love

When I loved him I ran away

Should I lie and keep it from him, as I sit her and wonder why?

I do like him, and I know I must tell him.
As I know I've been unfaithful many of times.

I told him that it wasn't fair to him that I was being unfaithful
And in love with his best friend.

Everytime, when it comes time to try and tell him,
I turn around and run away...I make him cry
When I think I am doing the right thing.

It's a hard subject that I try to avoid, for thee
And I avoid his loving eyes, as they show me his plee.

Today, he is living with one question, "What did I do wrong?"

He tries to ask me why I run, but I just carry on as I've been.

He cries and tries so very hard to earn me back,
But I just run away from it all,
And he can't ever forgive and forget that.

I finally give him the chance to ask..."Why do you run from me?"
I tell him..."I can't run anymore and I won't!
As I love you very much and it's been hard to tell you that."

He says, "I knew you loved me,
you just didn't give me the chance to love you back."
