Everybody keeps telling me to slow down
Find a little peace for my own good
They say I might be headed for a burnout
I would take it easy if I could

So I run to keep from thinking of you
I play these songs to keep from thinking of you
Don't stay home too long, just passing on through
If I'm sitting still, I know
that I will keep thinking of you

I never let a quiet moment find me
Sweep it under the rug and leave it there
I wish we could've made each other happy
Wish we could've took the time to care
The time to care

So I run to keep from thinking of you
I play these songs to keep from thinking of you
Don't stay home too long, just passing on through
If I'm sitting still, I know
that I will keep thinking of you

So it begins, I'm leaving again
'Cause I can't take the weight of your memory
It always gets stuck in my head

So I run to keep from thinking of you
I play these songs to keep from thinking of you
Don't stay home too long, just passing on through
If I'm sitting still, I know
that I will keep thinking of you
So I run to keep from thinking of you
I play these songs to keep from thinking of you
Don't stay home too long, just passing on through
If I'm sitting still, I know
that I will keep thinking of you

I know it kills, but I always will keep thinking of you
