Empire of Gold - The One

Time sure has been unkind
And wicked in it’s ways
The thought of you should be long gone
And faded like my childhood days
But you still linger inside
Like a bad taste in my mouth
I can’t stop hating myself
For leaving you with my disappearing act
My body is tired
I can’t run
I can’t run anymore
Cause all the feelings I once had
Made me run
Made me run
Made me run
I still remember the first day
We met on that morning train
You surprised me when that pretty dress and stilettos
Started dancing off into the rain
I used to be so dark and lonely
And high all the time
And you were my angel that came
And picked me up and shook me up and showed me the light
My body is tired
I can’t run
I can’t run anymore
Cause all the feelings I once had
Made me run
Made me run
Made me run
And every one of my lies
Was the truth
Was the truth
Was the truth
It’s just hard to see it
Cause I stole what was sacred to you
I can’t deny
All the feelings I cannot shake
Cause I now know
That you’re the one that got away
I can’t deny
All the feelings I cannot shake
Cause I now know
That you’re the one that got away
My body is tired
I can’t run
I can’t run anymore
Cause all the feelings I once had
Made me run
Made me run
Made me run
And every one of my lies
Was the truth
Was the truth
Was the truth
It’s just hard to see it
Cause I stole what was sacred to you
