Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
I saw your face across a crowded square
Something in your eyes just stopped me there
I couldn't move, I couldn't breathe or speak
The kind of moment you wait weeks to seek
[chorus]
I ran so far away, couldn't find a way
To tell you what I meant to say
I ran so far away from what my heart could feel
Wondering now if it was even real
[verse]
I turned around before you saw my face
Lost you somewhere in that crowded space
Now I replay it over in my mind
The chance I had, the words I left behind
[chorus]
I ran so far away, couldn't find a way
To tell you what I meant to say
I ran so far away from what my heart could feel
Wondering now if it was even real
[bridge]
Maybe someday our paths will cross again
Maybe I won't run away like then
This time I'll stay, I'll find my voice
This time love will be my only choice
[chorus]
I ran so far away, couldn't find a way
To tell you what I meant to say
I ran so far away from what my heart could feel
Wondering now if it was even real

Something in your eyes just stopped me there
I couldn't move, I couldn't breathe or speak
The kind of moment you wait weeks to seek

I ran so far away, couldn't find a way
To tell you what I meant to say
I ran so far away from what my heart could feel
Wondering now if it was even real

Now I replay it over in my mind
The chance I had, the words I left behind

To tell you what I meant to say
I ran so far away from what my heart could feel
Wondering now if it was even real

Maybe someday our paths will cross again
Maybe I won't run away like then
This time I'll stay, I'll find my voice
This time love will be my only choice

I ran so far away, couldn't find a way
To tell you what I meant to say
I ran so far away from what my heart could feel
Wondering now if it was even real
