Why Ain't I Running

[Verse 1] I can hear That highway calling As I watch the sunrise Crawling across her shoulder This is usually goodbye And yet those words I just can't find here As I hold her She's like no other woman That I have known before And it ain't me to See the morning sun From this side of the door [Chorus] Why ain't I running, why ain't I gone? How does she hold me without holding on? In love or a fight, she's stronger than strong Something's not right if there ain't nothing wrong It's got me wondering Why ain't I running, why ain't I gonna? [Verse 2] All those words I left behind me Praying they would never Find me and my freedom But if they stood Right here beside me They would never recognize me For all that she's done [Bridge] Once happiness was only Whenever I was on my own So now why do I feel lonely Any time that I'm alone [Chorus] Why ain't I running, why ain't I gone? How does she hold me without holding on? In love or a fight, she's stronger than strong Something's not right if there ain't nothing wrong It's got me wondering Why ain't I running, why ain't I gonna? [Verse 3] No, they've never built A wall that high Or made a chain that strong And God ain't never Made a place I felt like I belong [Chorus] Why ain't I running, why ain't I gone? How does she hold me without holding on? In love or a fight, she's stronger than strong Something's not right if there ain't nothing wrong It's got me wondering Why ain't I running, why ain't I gonna?
