Here I am again Oh the same old-fashioned sin And the same old-fashioned shame I’m as dirty as the rug In a darkened alley pub And I am sick and tired of this old-fashioned game
Will I ever truly understand? I can hide but you know where I am And you pursue my heart before I ever get Too far away from you
CHORUS: And I’ve come so close But you’ve come so close And I’ve fought so hard But you grab me and you pull me back again And I’ve run away But you keep on running after me Running after me
Should I keep falling down? And make friends with the ground? And the mud that’s on my face Do I like my disarray And the way my edges fray As I disregard this discomfort and dismay
Will I truly ever understand? I’m not always the seeker in you plan ‘Cause you pursued my heart before I ever Started chasing after you
CHORUS
Chase me down and capture all I am ‘Cause I’m fighting off the will to wander again Be my retreat, my sweet release, my remedy
