I'll run away with you ... I'll run away with you

I think this is a wonderful song,



but I didn't realize how lovely it is until I heard Katie Melua's version.


"Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"

Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"


and, that last line of the last verse --
And drowned her deep inside of me


Although this isn't her version, I found this other Melua song lovely as well.
