Running Back

(album: Playing For Keeps - 1980)

Baby, can you hear me?

Girl, you rock my soul
Give me full control
You made my life so happy, now
When you came through the door

But don't come running back with tears in your eyes
I won't be the one to listen to your story

Don't come running back, oh baby
Don't come running back, oh girl

You are my soul and inspiration
My only consolation
But, babe, you hurt my pride yes you did, now
When you walked through the door, oh

But don't come running back with tears in your eyes
I won't be the one, I can't listen to your pleading no more, now

So don't come running back, oh baby (Don't run back)
Don't come running back, oh girl (No no no no no)
Don't come running back, oh baby (Don't run back)
Don't come running, don't come running
Don't come running back, oh girl
Hey

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

Girl, you rock my baby, now, you rock my soul
Yeah, you do give me full control
You made my life so happy, now, oh
When you walked through the door

So don't come running back with tears in your eyes
I won't be the one to listen to your story, now

Don't come running back, oh baby (Don't run back)
Don't come running back, oh girl
Don't come running back, oh baby (Don't run back)
Don't come running, don't come, don't come running back
No, girl

(Don't come running back, oh baby don't run back)
Hey, I'm tired of your crying
(Don't come running back, oh girl)
Go out on me at night
You're cheating, and you're lying
(Don't come running back, oh baby don't run back)
I can't take it, girl, no-no-no-no-no-no-no
(Don't come running back, oh girl)
Don't come running back, no baby
