Lyrics

LOVE KEEPS RUNNING AWAY Dean Holtermann 11/2007

there's been times that I rode up high on my horse , on the mountains of Malibu
feeling I've been gifted in so many ways, looking out at the pristine views
there's been times when a shovel blistered my hands , digging trenches just to get through
covered in grit deep in the sludge, I had to do what I had to do
didn't bother me being up being down , always managed to turn things around
Its only love that has taken its toll , cutting pieces out of my soul

to be loved is all I wanted , for you to be happy and stay
and all I got is this empty heart , for love keeps running away
If thats all I get thats all I get , love keeps running away
if thats all i get I have to accept , love keeps running away

so my life has been blessed in so many ways, with children , family and friends
and I 've somehow managed to live a good life,I've learned to grow and bend
around the twists and turns of getting ahead, when the tough times did'nt want to end
I always got help from the graces of god, to hold strong defeat and defend
didn't bother me being up being down , I always managed to turn things around
Its only love that has taken its toll , cutting pieces out of my soul

to be loved is all I wanted , for you to be happy and stay
and all I got is this empty heart , for love keeps running away
If thats all I get thats all I get , love keeps running away
if thats all i get I have to accept , love keeps running away
SOLO
If I could only find the way. to hold on to the one love i crave
I would give it my best till I lay down and rest,silent deep in my grave

to be loved is all I wanted , for you to be happy and stay
and all I got is this empty heart , for love keeps running away
If thats all I get thats all I get , love keeps running away
if thats all i get I have to accept , love keeps running away
love keeps running away, love keeps running away
