[Verse 1]
Light falls on the pavement
Wakeful with my guard let down
Holding tightly to the words you gave me
Under oath the minute I said maybe
Steady dedication
In my resignation
Empty handed ’cause I live in daydreams
That’s why I haven’t shown my face here lately
[Chorus]
Say it to my heart and run
And I don’t know what I was running from (and run)
But I knew you’d say it to my heart and run (and run)
You knew it from the start
You’ve won, you’ve won, you’ve won
You knew it from the start
You’ve won, you’ve won, you’ve won
So blame it on my heart
And run, and run, and run
So blame it on my heart
And run, and run, and run, and run
[Verse 2]
Hopeful, but impatient
Floating so I’m not tied down
I’m becoming what the fable gave me
Stepping sideways off the path of safety
So I could say to you that I was wrong, and go on with it or
I could play the fool and be outdone
But in my defence your honour waits above
I’m becoming what the fable made me
[Chorus]
Say it to my heart and run
And I don’t know what I was running from (and run)
But I knew you’d say it to my heart and run (and run)
Say it to my heart
You knew it from the start
You’ve won, you’ve won, you’ve won
You knew it from the start
You’ve won, you’ve won, you’ve won
So blame it on my heart
And run, and run, and run
So blame it on my heart
And run, and run, and run, and run
