running scared

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

(Orbison, Melson)

Just running scared, each place we go
So afraid, that he might show


Yeah, running scared, what would I do
If he came back and wanted you?


Just running scared, feeling low
Running scared that you love him so


Just running scared, afraid to lose
If he came back, which one would you choose?


And then all at once, he was standing there
So sure of himself, his head in the air
While my heart was breaking, which one would it be?
Then you turned round and walked right out on me
