You love to run
Into the arms of anyone
Take off your shoes
And socks and stay awhile

You like the adrenaline rush
Just a little too much
You go from day to day, hand to mouth
And wonder why you're unsatisfied

'Cause love is a marathon
That's why you get tired so fast of everyone
Slow down and pace yourself
'Cause when it's good, it's a long open road

You think, still
You'll find a soul behind a thrill
You're just a cat chasing your tail
Round and round, but if you relax
Something might last

'Cause love is a marathon
That's why you get tired so fast of everyone
Slow down and pace yourself
'Cause when it's good, it's a long open road

You're exhausted, always coming down
While trying to come up for air
Trying to act like you just don't care

'Cause love is a marathon
That's why you get tired so fast of everyone
Slow down and pace yourself
'Cause when it's good, good, it's a long, long open road
It's a long, long road, yeah
