Keep You Close Lyrics

You should run to the arms of a better man

Putting miles between our past

A jealous heart does all it can

To keep you close



Alone in the dead of night

The night that let us burn

In misery we try to fight

We fight but never learn

And I'm doing the best I can

But I can't treat you right

Someday in another land

Another land and a different life



I never know when you're going

I only know when you're gone

I never know when you're going

I only know when you're gone



You should run to the arms of a better man

Putting miles between our past

A jealous heart does all it can

To keep you close

I'll run to the arms of the girl I have

She don't know about our past

A jealous heart does all it can

To keep you close



So I keep you close

Oh I keep you close

Never letting go

So I keep you close



I'd bury you if I could

I could, but I can't

And I know that I should

I should not think like that

It'd be easier not to feel

Feel the weight of what you bring

The hurt doesn't let me heal

Would you heal me from this feeling?



You should run to the arms of a better man

Putting miles between our past

A jealous heart does all it can

To keep you close

I'll run to the arms of the girl I have

She don't know about our past

A jealous heart does all it can

To keep you close



So I keep you close

Oh I keep you close

Never letting go

So I keep you close



So I keep you close

Oh I keep you close

Never letting go

So I keep you close



I never know when you're going

I never know when you're gone

I never know when you're going

I never know when you're gone



You should run to the arms of a better man

Putting miles between our past

A jealous heart does all it can

To keep you close
