[Verse 1]
Tell me it's personal, then say it twice
But I can hear even more behind your eyes
There's no illusion when you hide your lies
Why don't we sit and talk a while?

[Verse 2]
I don't want to take too long, or long at all
Just tell me how you feel, and share your thoughts
When I was your age I never felt the same
But you can tell me anyway

[Chorus]
Don't run away
You can pack your bags
Buy your ticket
Take your train
You don't have to wait a day
Don't run away
The rain will soon come down
One day wash away this town
You can leave, but don't run away

[Verse 3]
I hope you're listening just like you say
I need a shoulder I can lean on for the day
I have been feeling like I must be on my way
'Cause no one has told me I should stay
Is that ok?
[Chorus]
Don't run away
You can pack your bags
Buy your ticket
Take your train
You don't have to wait a day
Don't run away
The rain will soon come down
One day wash away this town
You can leave, but don't run away
