I can't catch you

by Sixpence None The Richer

Album: Sixpence none the richer [#7]

I guess you could say I'm a little afraid.
What if you go away?
I've seen it before,
I've been here before.
If I have to love myself,
Tell me how to love myself.
What's there to love about myself?
I just want to see that as a person you want me.
But I'm feeling the pain of all these bags in the way,
And I'm thinking you're just gonna run away, and I can't catch you.

I guess I would say that I want you to stay.
'Cause you have this strange knack,
adds a glow to my black as you chase it all away.
And I hope that you can see I will someday leave these things.
I am waiting to be free.
But I'm feeling the pain of all these bags in the way,
And I'm thinking you're just gonna run away, and I can't catch you.
Oh, I want to catch you.
