Hit and Run - Tanya Stephens

For better or for worse

Feels much too much like a curse

For what God has joined together

Let no man put us under

Let no man pull apart

And you shall wear this promise

No matter how uncomfortable

Like a yolk around your heart

Tried to do it by the book

Tried to walk the line

Still have the bruises from falling off

So many times

Don’t mind the gravitation

Nor the monopoly

But what good is ever after

Without the happily

Gonna run with the wind in my hair

And be glad that I’m free

Cuz right now baby

It’s all about me

Tired of watching the distance

Grow wider everyday

Finding more ways to say it

Meaning less of what you say

Insisting we’re still together

Insist we still appear

But I can’t see you in my visions

And I cant feel you when we’re

So tired of living

In this masquerade

You better get out of my way

Cuz I got no breaks and I’m gonna

hit and run

Too complicated to stick around or

I tried it and I hate it

Higher ground

Feels so much safer

Than falling down

And living in a crater

Somebody’s broken and it shouldn’t be me no

So I’m locking my heart up

Where nobody can reach

I take what I’m given in the heat of the night

I won’t be the disappointed if it don’t turn out right

So I’m taking my chances

On a whole string of romances

I’m putting a brand new spring on his ring

I’m not investing a thing cuz I know its just a fling

And I say for better or for worse

Sounds much too much like a curse

So I’ma cover my plates I’m gonna cut my breaks so get out of my way

Hit and run

Too complicated to stick around or

I tried it and I hate it

Higher ground

Feels so much safer

Than falling down

And living in a crater

Of your love

Of your love

Of your love

Of your love

Of your love

Of your love

I take what I’m given in the heat of the night

I won’t be the disappointed if it don’t turn out right

I’ma hit and run
