Lyrics of Stop Running Away by Brenda Russell
Ooh-ooh...
Da-da-da-da-da, hey
Oh, yeah
Where did we go that moment?
Vapors and whispers linger
Something in the air that night
Something to be remembered
How do I tell a story
When they′re no words to render?
Maybe it's a dream come true
But you won′t quite surrender
Do we all stand guard till we drop?
It's so hard to fake a heart
Where we might fall in love too fast
And where would we be?
I'm asking you to
Stop running away
I′m not gonna bite you
We′ve got nothing to lose
And everything else to gain
So don't be afraid; be my friend
I will be there till the end, ooh
We were caught up in motion
Nothing could stop the fever
But by the time you came around
You were a non-believer
Ooh, you want to hide your feelings
But you can′t hide forever
Oh, I hope someday you will be saved
From keeping it all together
Oh, do we all stand guard till we drop?
It's so hard to fake a heart
Oh, we might fall in love too fast
And where would we be?
I′m asking you to
Stop running away
I'm not gonna hurt you
Baby, life is just too short
To play those games
So don′t be afraid; be my friend
I will be there till the end
Don't be afraid; be my friend
I will be there, oh, babe
Ooh-wee-ooh-wee-ooh, ooh-ooh
Oh, do we all stand guard till we drop?
It's so hard to fake a heart
Oh, we might fall in love too fast
And where would we be, yeah
Ooh, so I keep asking you to
Stop running away
I′m not gonna hurt you
No, life is just too short
To play those games, oh, yeah
So don′t be afraid; be my friend
'Cause I will be there till the end
Don′t be afraid; be my friend
I will be there, oh, baby
Don't be afraid, no, no, no
I′m gonna be here, baby
I'm a gonna, I′m a gonna be there
Ba-do-ba-do, ba-do-ba-do, ba-do-ba-do, ooh
Do-be-do-be-do-be, yeah, yeah
Don't be afraid; be my friend
'Cause I will be there till the end, oh, baby
Your friend, your friend
Your friend, your...
