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? 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 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 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? 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
