THE STORY:
My inclination for years was to run back to the unloving men. Here’s a song that’s an early testament to that behavior.
THE LYRICS:
You can point your finger right back at
yourself
Cause you are to blame as much as I
Your words they are cutting and I can ignore
them
Ignore me and watch me go by
Chorus:
Am I no more than a child
To believe anything that you’d say?
I know that you just want to hurt me
And you know I’ll run back the next day
You smiled when I hollered
You laughed when I cried
You gave no emotion
I gave too much of mine
I guess I’m too jealous
I never learned how to trust
Do unto others as we want done unto us
Repeat Chorus
How can you hurt someone that you know loves
you?
How can you throw me away?
Throw me away…I’ll run back the next day.
I may possess all the bad things you say I
possess
There is nothing I’ll try to deny
But you’re playing baseball inside a glass
diamond
Cause you are no different than I
Repeat Chorus
…and sometimes I wonder
If I had a loaded gun in my hand
If I’d point it at you
You’re always trying to act like you’re some
super-hero
But your soul is not bullet proof
You are no more than a child
And you don’t believe anything that I say
I know that you just want to hurt me
And you know I’ll run back the next day
