I tried to fly, but I ran out of sky And I fell straight down into the ocean Then I rowed away back to shore And I stayed for a while Till I got tired of being alone Why do I always try to run away from you? Please don't say a castaway Is what I was born to do I guess I'll always be lost without you If I got smart, I'd trade my wings for your heart And I'd promise to never chase the wind I look up at the moon, but all I see is you And I'm reminded I need your love again Why do I always try to run away from you? Please don't say a castaway Is what I was born to do I guess I'll always be lost without you And I'd be naive to ever think You're out your door waiting for me Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh So why do I always try to run away from you? Please don't say a castaway is what I was born to do I guess I'll always be lost without you
