Valerie Simpson
Running Out
[Verse 1]
I'm running out of teardrops
Running out of heartaches
Sick and tired of your lies
Excusing what you do
I’m running out of forgiveness (Running out)
Running out of doing my best (Running out)

[Refrain]
And one whole day before you count to two
I'll be done, run out on you

[Verse 2]
I'm running out of strength to fight (Running out)
Running out of lonely nights (Running out)
Running out of cloudy days
And always feeling blue
I’m running out of crying in vain (Running out)
And running out of hurt and pain (Running out)

[Refrain]
And one whole day before you count to two
I'll be done, run out on you (Run out on you)

[Bridge]
I gave you all my loving, just to be mine
I tried to do us right and be good and kind
I made up my mind, I'm gonna leave you alone
If you don't believe I'm leaving
Just count the days I'm gone
[Verse 3]
Running out of being a fool (Running out)
Running out of going by the rules (Running out)
Sick and tired of feeling shame
And defending what you do
I'm running out of words to say (Running out)
I'm running out of prayers to pray (Running out)

[Refrain]
And one whole day before you count to two
I’ll be done, run out on you (Run out on you)

[Outro]
Running out of heartaches (Running out, yeah)
Running out of lonely nights (Running out, yeah)
Running out of being a fool (Running out, yeah)
Running out of goin’ by the rules (Running out, yeah)
I'm running out, yes, I am (Running out, yeah)
I’m running out, yes, I am (Running out, yeah)
I'm running out, yes, I am (Running out, yeah)
