You're like a child within

The one who just won't give in

Oh how you love to play

I wanna understand

I wanna do all I can

I wanna make you stay



Where will I find you

Next time I lose you

I'm just a fool for your touch



Cross my heart

I wanna love you

How can I love you

If you keep running away

Cross my heart

It's getting stronger

I can't wait much longer

You gotta stop running away



Your kisses are bittersweet

Alibies incomplete

I know what you didn't say

Now haven't you had your fun

Is anything left undone

Why can't we meet half way



When will you find out

Now that the truth's out

This is more than a careless romance



Cross my heart

I wanna love you

How can I love

If you keep running away

Cross my heart

It's getting stronger

I can't wait much longer

You gotta stop running away



True love is never quite enough

It's so unsure

Is it what you're dreaming of

Darling, it's time you let me in

Maybe tonight

We can start again



Cross my heart

I wanna love you

How can I love you

If you keep running away

Cross my heart

It's getting stronger

I can't wait much longer

You gotta stop running away



Cross my heart

It's getting stronger

I can't wait much longer

You gotta stop running away

Cross my heart

It's getting stronger

I can't wait much longer

You gotta stop running away
