"Running Away" lyrics - JON BATISTE

[Verse 1: Jon Batiste]
You've got a friend, a lover, a friend, a lover in me
Right next to you, right next to you is where I'll always be
I keep on, keep on talkin' with ya, my friend
So keep goin', 'cause I'ma stay with ya until the end

[Bridge: Jon Batiste]
One call is all it takes (Run away)
When your tears fall, fallin' down your face
I wipe them off (Yeah) at the end of the day
I'll come runnin', just don't run away
No, I'll come runnin', don't run away

[Verse 2: Jon Batiste]
You know it's hard to catch a shootin' star
You gotta wait 'til it decides to park and that's okay, hm
A couple dollars ain't even enough
'Cause the price just keep goin' up and that's okay

[Pre-Chorus: Jon Batiste]
Don't beat yourself up
It's just a waste of precious time
You lookin' for answers
You already know in the back of your mind

[Chorus: Jon Batiste]
Ca-ch-ch-ch, you keep goin' down, down (Oh)
But you can't keep runnin' away
You keep goin' down, down, oh
But you can't keep runnin' away
You keep goin' down, down
But you can't keep runnin' away
I said, you keep goin' down, down
But you can't keep runnin' away (Runnin', goin')

[Verse 3: Leigh-Anne & Jon Batiste]
When the weight is on your shoulders, I can take it off of you, yeah
Lovin' through your battles as you're walkin' through the fire
Promise until the end it's us (Us), won't give up (Up)
Holdin' you down (Down)
Down, I won't let you fall (I won't let you fall)
I won't let you fall (I'll be around)
I'll be around whenever you fall (I'm just a call away)
Won't let you, won't let you fall, ow!

[Chorus: Jon Batiste, Leigh-Anne & Both]
Down, down (Ooh)
But you can't keep runnin' away (Away, away, away)
(Can't keep, can't keep, you can't keep runnin' away)
I said, you can't, you can't, you can't
Keep goin' down, down, woah (Down)
But you can't keep runnin' away
(Can't keep, can't keep, you can't keep runnin' away)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
You keep goin' down, down (Down, babe)
But you can't keep runnin' away (Don't you keep on, oh)
(Can't keep, can't keep, you can't keep runnin' away)
Oh, oh, ooh, ooh (Down, down)
But you can't keep runnin' away (Runnin', goin')

[Outro: Jon Batiste]
What's love if we can't be brave?
Keep on runnin', we can't keep runnin' away
