What if I feel stupid for falling in love with you?
What if I regret it and you leave me with a gaping wound?
What if our first picture feels like salt within the mixture
Blood and fixtures of our muscles torn apart
What if when it ends we are still friends and it takes
All that's in my power not to break your heart
What if I never forget a night we spend in your twin bed
And all I think of in New York is you
What if I'm not meant for this and how I felt the night we kissed
The first time was just me trying to be cool (Cool)
What if I
Run away
What if I run away too soon?
What if we don't get too far and I leave it in ruins cause
These days my body's struggling to cope
What if I pour it all down the drain, it's not the same
As how it was when I was young and I had hope
What if seeing half my friends get broken and get up again
Has only taught me that I should be scared
What if all the damage meant that I could never manage
Recognizing all the things that mean you care
What if I
Run away (I don't wanna)
What if I run away too soon?
Maybe it'll all work out and you're the one I sing about
For years to come and none of it will hurt
Maybe in a couple years we will have worked through all our fears
And we can sit in silence like we were
Cause lover you're my favourite and I'd
Love it if we made it and I
Think that we could do it if we tried
Cause I think you were meant for me and I was meant for you, you see
So maybe we could stand the test of time
But what if I
Run away
What if I run away too soon?
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna run away)
Oh, what if I
Run away
What if I run away too soon?
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna run away)
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna run away)
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna see you break)
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna run away)
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna run away)
