Run That by Me Lyrics

You smile to sweeten what you're saying
But you wound with your words so fine
We all get the lives that we deserve, what ?
You're cruel to my kind
Do you think that I've got no feelings
Left your hurt inside ?
Your aim is high and you don't miss much
But my eyes are open wide

If I'm gonna have to push the boat out to meet that tidal wave
I'm gonna need more than a moment to find a face that's brave
And if I'm looking in the desert to find the blazing flowers
I'm gonna need more than a minute more like twenty-four hours

Run that by me one more time
I gotta have a chance to recover
Run that by me one more time
I gotta have a chance
Run that by me one more time
Before you blow my mind and my cover
Run that by me one more time
Cos I'm strong enough

So you saw this coming did you ?
You give pride while I take the fall
You never thought to warn me did you ?
Just sit back and watch it all
You straight jacket my dreams
And chainsaw my intentions
I hate to shatter your illusions
But I'm strong enough to carry on

If I'm gonna have to…

Run that by me one…

I get crushed while you never mind
I get crushed while you never mind
And this is all the well I hav
Excuse me whilst I dig it up, dig it up
I get crushed while you never mind
I get crushed while you never mind
And this is all the strength
Excuse me whilst I dig it up, dig it up

Run that by me one…

Run that by me one more time
You don't feel love
Run that by me one more time
You don't feel why

Run that by me one more time
You don't feel love
Run that by me one more time
You don't feel why
