Shouldn’t Have To Run – Gentle Bones & Joie Tan

How are you doing, how have you been?
Sending this text for the fifth time this week
So when can I call you? There’s so much to say
Sending this text cuz I struggle when we are face to face

If you only knew
The love you refuse
Waiting by the phone for you
But you misunderstand
When I make these plans
Tried to please then try to mend

Cuz we shouldn’t even have to run
When did this lose all its fun?
I know these words are not the ones that you want
But you won’t say that we’re done
If you told me what you want
Then we wouldn’t even have to run

How are you feeling? Are you free in the evening?
I just wanted to see you once outside of my dreams
But I’m guessing you’d rather try this tomorrow
Honestly right now we’re hollow
We’ve been that way now far too long
But let’s get this over with

If we only knew
The love we refuse
Tried to please then try to mend

Cuz we shouldn’t even have to run
When did this lose all its fun?
I know these words are not the ones that you want
But you won’t say that we’re done
If you told me what you want
Then we wouldn’t even have to run

Forget you said I’m the one
I’d go away if you say that right now we’re done
Do you hate what we’ve become?
We shouldn’t even have to run
