[Intro]
I know you run every time you see another exit sign
It's easy to walk away, so I'm gonna make you stay

[Verse 1]
I remember once upon a time I heard him say
"When you're in the valley, baby, you just gotta wait
There's another mountain waiting over the way", so
Everything gets better, it gets better in the end
And if it isn't better, then you start over again
Life will try to fix you, but you don't gotta change, no

[Pre-Chorus]
You could break in two but you'll break through

[Chorus]
I know you run every time you see anothеr exit sign
It's easy to walk away, so I'm gonna make you stay
Looking into your еyes, you've been following exit signs
It's easy to walk away, so I'm gonna make you stay

[Post-Chorus]
(Stay)
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna make you stay
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna make you
You stay
[Verse 2]
I remember when I was so young, I couldn't speak
Everybody told me all the things I couldn't be
They can try to hide the hurt but you just feel the pain, anyway

[Pre-Chorus]
You could break in two but you'll break through
I've been down there too, I'll pull you through

[Chorus]
I know you run every time you see another exit sign
It's easy to walk away, so I'm gonna make you stay
Looking into your eyes, you've been following exit signs
It's easy to walk away, so I'm gonna make you stay

[Post-Chorus]
(You stay)
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna make you stay (No)
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna make you (I'm gonna make you)
You stay

[Bridge]
You could break in two but you'll break through
And I've been down there too, I'll pull you through
You could break in two but you'll break through, no, no, no
And I've been down there too, I'll pull you through, oh, ah
[Chorus]
I know you run every time you see another exit sign
It's easy to walk away (Walk away), so I'm gonna make you stay (I'm gonna make you stay)
Looking into your eyes, you've been following exit signs
It's easy to walk away, but I'm gonna make you (I'm gonna make you)

[Outro]
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna make you
I'm gonna make you stay (Stay)
I'm gonna make you (Ah)
I'm gonna make you
You stay
