I know that when you look at me
There's so much that only you can see
But when, you pause and take the time
I know in my heart, you'll find
A little boy who's scared sometimes, who isn't always strong
Know you see the hurt in me, I feel so all alone

(Chorus)
I wanna run to you, I wanna run to you
Won't you hold me in your arms and keep me safe from harm
I wanna run to you, I wanna run to you
Lord please stay, and don't ever take your love away

Oh each day, each day I play the role
Of someone who's always in control
But at night, I come home and turn the key
No one's there, seems only you care for me
So what's the sense of trying hard to find my dreams?
Without you Lord to share it with,
Tell me what does it mean?

(Chorus)
I wanna run to you, I wanna run to you
Oh, hold me in your arms and keep me safe from harm
I wanna run to you, Lord if I come to you
Lord please stay, and don't ever take your love away, love away

I need you near, I need you near to wipe away my tears
To kiss away my fears, oh please Lord
Know how much

(Chorus)
I wanna run to you, I wanna run to you
Lord, hold me in your arms and keep me safe from harm
I wanna run to you, But if I come to you
Lord please stay, don't ever take your love away
