  • No more running
    Says my mind
    All this movement
    Has just proved
    Your kisses are too fine
    Hold the harmony that I see
    Friends I once had
    Turn their thoughts away from me

    No more running
    I've got to be
    On back porches
    With a torch of a firefly lit tree

    It's what I hoped for
    It's what I hoped for

    No more running
    No more running

    I lock my bones and
    Trip my feet
    I told them
    I'll find a place to be

    You stink like candy
    In your teeth
    When you
    Leave your face with me

    No more running
    Says my mind
    All this movement
    Has just proved your kisses are too fine

    It's what I hoped for
    It's what I hoped for

    No more running
    No more running
    No more running
    No more running Writer/s: Brian Ross Weitz, David Michael Portner, Noah Benjamin Lennox
