Memories of you and me Tumble inside my head The way that we used to be Things that we said No one has ever made me believe so strong You left me to wonder How did our love go wrong Angelia Where you running to now Angelia Got to make you turn around I lie awake at night Wait for the sun to shine I still feel you next to me Your lips on mine Without a warning You made our love a lie You said you were sorry But you never told me why Angelia Where you running to now Angelia Got to make you turn around Maybe my love is in vain Maybe you're the hurting kind Can't take no more of this pain I've got to get you off my mind Tried to be what you wanted I gave you all I had You left me with nothing Nothing but a photograph Angelia Where you running to now Angelia Won't you please turn around Angelia Where you running to now Angelia Where you running to now
