One Way Love

Hey baby, I'm aware of the way you feel
Caught between a rock and a raw deal
I know it makes you wanna turn and run
That ain't no solution

Hey mama, it's so cold up against the wall
Old lover's cut has left a dark scar
No bleedin' by the saber or the pin
Our love is the reason for livin'

It's a chance of a lifetime
And we may never get it back, no

Oh, oh don't run, run, run away
No, no, don't let it be a one way love
Oh, oh don't run, run, run away
No, I don't want it that way

White sister with the dime a dozen eyes
Cold mister cut you down to size
Don't you throw away the key
Be a lover - break it down - set it free

It's a chance of a lifetime
And we may never get it back, no

Oh, oh don't run, run, run away
No, no, don't let it be a one way love
Oh, oh don't run, run, run away
No, don't let it be a one way love
Oh, oh don't run, run, run away
No, I don't want it that way

I see you run from the weight of the world
Still you smile and pretend
I see it breakin' the heart of a young girl, never again

(Solo)

Don't take it the wrong way baby
Don't you try and run away
I don't want a one way love
