Run That By Me Lyrics

you smile to sweeten what you're saying 

but you wound with your words so fine 

we all get the lives that we deserve 

what 

you're cruel to my kind 

do you think that I've got no feelings 

left to hurt inside 

your aim is high and you don't miss much 

but my eyes are open wide 

if I'm gonna have to push the boat out 

to meet that tidal wave 

I'm gonna need more than a moment 

to find a face that's brave 

and if I'm looking in the desert 

to find the blazing flowers 

I'm gonna need more than a minute 

more like twenty four hours 

run that by me one more time 

I gotta have a chance to recover 

run that by me one more time 

I gotta have a chance 

run that by me one more time 

before you blow my mind and my cover 

run that by me one more time 

cos I'm strong enough 

so you saw this coming did you 

you give pride while I take the fall 

you never thought to warn me did you 

just sit back and watch it all you straightjacket my dreams 

and chainsaw my intentions 

I hate to shatter your illusions 

but I'm strong enough to carry on 

if I'm gonna have to push the boat out 

to meet that tidal wave 

I'm gonna need more than a moment 

to find a face that's brave 

and if I'm looking in the desert 

to find the blazing flowers 

I'm gonna need more than a minute 

more like twenty four hours 

run that by me one more time 

I gotta have a chance to recover 

run that by me one more time 

I gotta have a chance 

run that by me one more time 

before you blow my mind and my cover 

run that by me one more time 

cos I'm strong enough 

I get crushed while you never mind 

I get crushed while you never mind 

and this is all the well I have 

excuse me whilst I dig it up dig it up 

I get crushed while you never mind 

I get crushed while you never mind 

and this is all the strength I have 

excuse me whilst I dig it up dig it up 

run that by me one more time 

I gotta have a chance to recover run that by me one more time 

I gotta have a chance 

run that by me one more time 

before you blow my mind and my cover 

run that by me one more time 

cos I'm strong enough 

run that by me one more time 

you don't feel love 

run that by me one more time 

you don't feel why 

repeat
