[Verse 1]

If I could be honest

I don't know why I'm still clinging on to you, oh-woah

All the things that you promised

You set it all aside while you're with someone new, oh-woah


[Pre-Chorus]

At first I thought that this was love

But for you I'd never be enough (Still I am right here)

Still I am right here holding on to what we never had

Though I know, I shouldn't keep my hopes high


[Chorus]

(Running) To your arms but you're not there to catch me

(Winning) Runner up 'cause I could never be your first

(I'm falling, breaking) I'm calling out your name

Baby, I gave my all

But it was never me from the start


[Post-Chorus]

Running, falling, breaking

Chasing, hoping for your loving

Running, falling, breaking

Chasing, hoping for your loving


[Verse 2]

Baby, just say it

You'rе keeping me around 'cause you don't wanna be alonе, oh-woah

You needed someone you could hold

Just the comfort when it's cold

Pull me in, push away, yet I stay


[Pre-Chorus]

At first I thought that this was love

But for you I'd never be enough (Still I am right here)

Still I am right here holding on to what we never had

Though I know, I shouldn't keep my hopes high


[Chorus]

(Running) To your arms but you're not there to catch me

(Winning) Runner up 'cause I could never be your first

(I'm falling, breaking) I'm calling out your name

Baby, I gave my all

But it was never me from the start


[Bridge]

I can't keep on living in rewind

Stuck in these hopeless dreams you left behind

And I'm tryin' so hard

So hard to walk out from this maze of love

(One step at a time) I'm gonna pick up all the pieces one by one

One by one

Running, falling, breaking

Baby, I gave my all

But it was never me from the start


[Chorus]

(Running) To your arms but you're not there to catch me

(Winning) Runner up 'cause I could never be your first

(I'm falling, breaking) I'm calling out your name

Baby, I gave my all

But it was never me from the start
