You always get the last word
You fly like a mockingbird
Everytime I get you cornered you slip through my fingers, you do

When I'm trying to outrun you
You won't leave me alone
When I need you to be with me
I end up on my own
Oh I wish that I could move you
Faster, be still or rewind
But it's a matter of time

My heart is a rubberband
Strung out between your hands
You gave me love but I wasn't ready then, and you took it back now that I am

When I'm trying to outrun you
You won't leave me alone
When I need you to be with me
I end up on my own
Oh I wish that I could move you
Faster, be still or rewind
But it's a matter of time

My love, (why can't we go back there) my fate,(are we beyond repair) a year (it's not so far away) too late (can we start over again)
If he could see (what he could be with me) me now (that I feel differently)
I've come (he'll see I've come) around

When I'm trying to outrun you
You won't leave me alone
When I need you to be with me
I end up on my own
Oh I wish that I could move you
Faster, be still or rewind
But it's a matter of time
