Текст Garth Brooks – Why Ain’t I Running

I can hear that highway calling
As I watch the sunrise crawling
Across her shoulder.
This is usually goodbye,

She’s like no other woman
That I have known before,
And it ain’t me to see the morning sun
From this side of the door.

Why ain’t I running?
Why ain’t I gone?
How does she hold me
Without holding on?

In love or a fight,
She’s stronger than strong.
Something’s not right
If there ain’t nothing wrong.
It’s got me wondering:
Why ain’t I running?
Why ain’t I gone?

All those words I left behind me
Praying they would never find me
And my freedom,
But if they stood right here beside me,
They would never recognise me
For all that she’s done.

Once happiness was only
Whenever I was on my own.
So now why do I feel lonely

Why ain’t I running?
Why ain’t I gone?
How does she hold me
Without holding on?

In love or a fight,
She’s stronger than strong.
Something’s not right
When there ain’t nothing wrong.
It’s got me wondering:
Why ain’t I running?

No, they’ve never built a wall that high
Or made a chain that strong,
And God ain’t never made a place
I felt like I belong.

Why ain’t I running?
Why ain’t I gone?
How does she hold me
Without holding on?

In love or a fight,
She’s stronger than strong.
Something’s not right
When there ain’t nothing wrong.
It’s got me wondering:
Why ain’t I running?
Why ain’t I gone?
