lyrics

Tell me how you want to play it
If I run into you at that harvest party
We can play it cool
Keep it all low-key
Tell me how you want to play it
I could raise my glass to you
And you could raise yours to me
And all those memories
But if you were to walk on over, blame it on the wine
Tell me that you can't stop thinking of me, or you're fine
Well it's just too complicated
Because I'd want you to be happy and I'd hate it
And my heart would race and I'd probably say something contrived

Cause I don't want to know don't want to know don't want to know
It'll hurt either way
And I don't want to show don't want to show don't want to show
If I care what you say
And if I don't want to go don't want to go don't want to go
I'm still not going to stay
Our love was always something of a runaway train
And I'm staying off the tracks

I thought that I might not love again, but I did
I married him in August and we're talking about kids
But the walks by the river, the fighting in the halls
When I threw the drink at you and didn't take your call
Well I was young, but sincere
And where I went from there led here

So I don't want to know don't want to know don't want to know
It'll hurt either way
And I don't want to show don't want to show don't want to show
If I care what you say
And if I don't want to go don't want to go don't want to go
I'm still not going to stay
Our love was always something of a runaway train
And I'm staying off the tracks

No such thing as going back

I wish you happiness
I wish you peace of mind
But I can't love him right
Without leaving you behind

So I don't want to know don't want to know don't want to know
It'll hurt either way
And I don't want to show don't want to show don't want to show
If I care what you say
And if I don't want to go don't want to go don't want to go
I'm still not going to stay
Our love was always something of a runaway train
And I'm staying off the tracks
