I’ve been running for too many long years
Chasing shadows as the sun goes down

All that I am, all that we were together
Fool that I’ve been, I let it go it’s gone forever

Have mercy baby
Have mercy on a fool in love
Don’t condemn me to a life without you
Don’t find me guilty and push me away

I’ve been running for too many long years
Chasing shadows as the sun goes down
I’ve been running for too many long years
But if you run they say the truth will hunt you down

I learned the truth hard as it was to face it
The truth about myself hard as it was to take it

I’m as guilty as a man can be
I’m as guilty as you want to make me feel
Oh but spare me the coldness of your attitude
And save me from this lonely solitude

Nothing else could shake me
Nothing else could make me see
Nothing else could break this heart of stone
Nothing but the truth now it won't leave me alone
I didn’t treat you right
Thought only about myself

I’ve been running for too many long years
Oooh baby, yes I am
I’ve been running for too many lonely years
It’s time caught up with myself

I’ve been running for too many long years
It’s time caught up with myself
I've been running for too many lonely years
But I don’t love nobody else
I don’t love nobody else
Nobody but you
I’m chasing shadows
