You Run Away Lyrics - All In Good Time - Barenaked Ladies

You run away, you could turn and stay 

But you run away from me 

I tried to be your brother 

You cried and ran for cover 

I made a mess, who doesn't? 

I did my best but it wasn't enough 

You run away, you could turn and stay 

But you run away from me 

You run away, you could turn and stay 

But you run away from me 

I'll give you something you can cry about 

One thing you should try it out 

Hold a mirror shoulder high 

When you're older look you in the eye 

When you're older look you in the eye

I tried but you tried harder 

I lied but you lied smarter 

You made me guess, who was it? 

I did my best but it wasn't enough, ooh 

You run away, you could turn and stay 

But you run away from me 

You run away 

(I tried to be your brother) 

You could turn and stay 

(You cried and ran for cover) 

But you run away from me 

(I made a mess, who doesn't?) 

(I did my best but it wasn't enough) 

That's not something to cry about 

It's not something to lie about, ooh
