You carry the weight of the world
It weighs down your smile and your curls
You run on a fraction of what you deserve
You carry the weight of the world
I know that this life got you down
The sun keeps on shutting you out
Slave to the pavement, and lost in the crowd
I know that this life got you down
But you don't, you don't have to face it alone
When your light runs out, I won't, I won't
Cause love, love don't run
Love, love don't run
You fight with the fire in your heart
Like fireflies cursing the dark
You won't keep that fire alive in a jar
But you fight with the fire in your heart
But you don't, you don't have to fight it alone
When your light runs out
I won't
Cause love, love don't run
Love, love don't run
I'll be there when the darkness comes
Cause love, love don't run
I know we've been drifting apart
But I'm still there, wherever you are
Yeah, I'm still there, wherever you are
I know we've been drifting apart
But I'm still there, wherever you are
Yeah, I'm still there, wherever you are
I know we've been drifting apart
But I'm still there, wherever you are
Yeah, I'm still there, wherever you are
Cause love, love don't run
Love, love don't run
Tell me when
I'll be there when the darkness comes
Love, love don't run
Love, love don't run
Love, love don't run
