This Is How It Goes

In case you chase me, oh
And so I'll run but not too far

And want then not to fear you?

'Cause I'll be back before you know, you know
And you won't call after me, yeah
And so I'll run but not too far
And know-it-all eyes you show me
In case you chase me

I'll get angry at your words and I'll go home
Yeah, I'll be back before you know
'Cause I'll be back before you know, you know
That I can think of to say
'Cause this is how it goes, baby
Bear it in mind, if I cannot believe in me
But is it a crime for me to say my own view
I'll get angry at your words and I'll go home, yeah
Who will I then be?

You tell me I'm your fortress of desire
What do you want me to think of my thoughts?
Just to prove that you don't need to lose it
So give me a toothful of that smile
And so I'll run but not too far
But this is how it goes, baby
'Cause I'll be back before you know, you know
But this is how it goes, baby
And you won't call after me, yeah
I'll get angry at your words and I'll go home

Yeah, I'll be back before you know
And then you won't call after me, yeah
