"Running Away (I Know I'm Not Wrong)"

I didn’t come this far
To be turned down
And I didn’t work this hard
To be thrown around

When I got here I decided
I will work ‘til I am done and
I do not have time to be playing
All these games with you
I do not have time to spend
Running away from love

I didn’t come this far
To have you make it harder
I didn’t work so hard
To live a life that’s not my own

And I did not come this far
To have you tell me how to live
I did not ever work this hard
So don’t tell me I am wrong

Since I been here I have told you
You should know I cannot stay and
I do not have the patience to be
Spending my life where I don’t belong
I do not have the patience
For running away from love

After all is said and done
I don’t need anyone to save me
I don’t need someone to stand beside me
I don’t need anyone to walk me through my life
And I don’t need anyone to try

I didn’t come this far
To leave anything behind
And I did not work this hard
To break my heart again

I didn’t come this far
To tell you I am sorry (But I am)
But I have never worked this hard
And I’ve never wanted anything
That scares me this much

But I know I’m not wrong

When I came here I decided
I would be the one to set me free
I do not have time to be playing
With any ideas of love at all and
I do not have time to spend
Running away from you...

And I know I’m not wrong
And I know you will disagree (I know you well..)
But I know I’m not wrong
I know I’m not wrong
I know I am not wrong...
