Lyrics
Come to me, come to me tonight
Oh god I need you, anyway... baby
I just wanna be, be around you all the time
Oh god I need you. oh...
I'm running I'm scared tonight
I'm running I'm scared of life
I'm running I'm scared of breathing
Coz I adore you
I'm running I'm scared tonight
I'm running I'm scared of breathing
Coz I adore you
Come to me, come to me a bit more
Oh god I need you, there's nothing left for me to say
So rest on me darling, stay forever more
Oh god I need you, I need you
I'm running I'm scared tonight
I'm running I'm scared of life
I'm running I'm scared of breathing
Coz I adore you
I'm running I'm scared tonight
I'm running I'm scared of breathing
Coz I adore you
Oh, what I wouldn't give away
To be you're shelter and keep you safe... oh... oh.
I'm running I'm scared tonight
I'm running I'm scared of life
I'm running I'm scared of breathing
Coz I adore you
I'm running I'm scared tonight
I'm running I'm scared of breathing
Coz I adore you
