Outrunning My Soul - John Hiatt

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

My life is out of control, baby

You’re outrunning my soul

You’re outrunning my soul

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

You’re easy passing my toll, baby

You’re outrunning my soul

You’re outrunning my soul

What’s it gonna take to slow you down a little bit

What’s it gonna take for love to just live with it

I can’t shake these feelings inside of me

I can’t fake the man that I’m supposed to be

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

It’s like I’m taking a stroll, baby

You’re outrunning my soul

You’re outrunning my soul

You give me a wink passed all understanding

Shudders me to think what love might be demanding

Wouldn’t it be nice to spend some time together?

Can’t we be here now and now not be forever?

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

You’re like some special patrol, baby

You’re outrunning my soul

You’re outrunning my soul

Shoot the moon and stars out beyond the stratosphere

Flesh upon flesh, cozy by the fire here

Bending to your will, in a single arc of light

Isn’t that enough eternity for one night?

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

Going nowhere I’m told, baby

You’re outrunning my soul

You’re outrunning my soul

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

You’re outrunning my soul, baby

I’m like I got no control, baby

You’re outrunning my soul

You’re outrunning my soul
