You lit the fire
Then drank the water
You slammed that door
And left me standing all alone

We wrote the story
We turned the pages
You changed the end
Like everybody said you would

I should've seen it coming
It should've sent me running
That's what I get for loving you
If I had a time machine
And if life was a movie scene
I'd rewind and I'd tell me
Run
And we were never meant to be
So if I had a time machine
I'd go back and I'd tell me
Run
Run

I got your letters
I got your words
I stacked them high
And lit them all and let 'em burn

Your broken stories
Don't mean a thing
You made that bed
Good luck falling back asleep

I should've seen it coming
It should've sent me running
That's what I get for loving you
If I had a time machine
And if life was a movie scene
I'd rewind and I'd tell me
Run
And we were never meant to be
So if I had a time machine
I'd go back and I'd tell me
Run
Run

Oh, your love, it got me higher
Then it drove me up the wall
But the higher up you go
The further you will fall

Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh, run

If I had a time machine
And if life was a movie scene
I'd rewind and I'd tell me
Run
And we were never meant to be
So if I had a time machine
I'd go back and I'd tell me
Run

If I had a time machine
And if life was a movie scene
I'd rewind and I'd tell me
Run
And we were never meant to be
So if I had a time machine
I'd go back and I'd tell me
Run
Run
