o there’s this girl and there’s this guy, Off and on they date. She says they’ve been going out for several months. He calls it a year and eight. But all right. See, He’s always doing stupid things like that. He’s always rounding up and always keeping score. He wants control, He wants a dog, He wants a one year anniversary and more. And so he tries to break her armor down with his sneaky little grin. Tries to push her towards the edge. She just digs her heels right in. He sends roses like grenades, Thinking she will show her hand. Thinking she wants accolades. He doesn’t understand: That’s not her way. That’s not how she goes. She has no need to label something she already knows. See he wants control. He wants her to break. He wants to take things year by year. She wants to live them day by day. And that’s not a threat. She does not make threats. That’s not my way… Her way. Some people dream of ever after. They dream of finding love. Some people want to live the whole domestic scene. Some people know there's more to life than living out some dull routine. And she knows it. So she runs the other way, Though the streets are cold and black. Feels her panic rising up In another stealth attack. And she's running out of breath. Tears are running from her eyes. Footsteps gaining from behind. Someone’s screaming “compromise!” But that’s not her way. That’s not what she does. She is the sturdy one, The callous one. She is, She always was. That was all made clear. I guess he forgot. Whether or not he understood, He had been cautioned all along. So it was not just, And it was not fair… But it was wrong that when he dropped to one knee, She sort of laughed instead of cried. And when she saw he had a ring, She couldn’t breathe and ran outside. It was just one more deal in a game they’d played a few times. All for his validation. All for his fears, All victimless crimes, Right? Just part of the plan, Right? There was always a plan, Right? Right? Right! Well she ran. He was coming up behind her. She ran, Trying to think of places no one else would find her. She had warned that man. So she ran, And she ran, And she ran, And she ran! So fuck your plan. I am not amused. You go script things out, But I’ll stay here. I’ll be the one to choose. We are not all right. We are not okay. I must not have been clear enough. I guess I meant to say, You are not my life. You are not my soul. You are someone who’s a part of me. You are not in control. And that’s not your fault. It was my mistake. I couldn’t find the words to say I couldn’t stay. It’s just not my way.

Wow Wow Wow...I share this in my FB wall every year, still wows me....

Oh Michael I will run away with you anytime! Haha my crush forever❤😊

And now he’s a Tony Award winning director. ❤ He’s a national treasure… Michael, you are so loved.

i know i’m 11 years late but does anyone have the lyrics?

This is my favorite versions, even out of the different ones of Michael

He's cute af.

God what a gorgeous voice!!

its 2020 and this is saving me<3

BRB........On my way to change my name to Sam........

Still watching this after n-years. 😂

I think Jessica Patty's version was the best. Good effort though. :)

It was more cool if Phoebe(Lola) sings with Rocco Rasino(Johnny vincent)

What show is this from?

이 곡을 처음으로 알게되었는데 아무리 찾아봐도 한국 사이트에 가사나 정보가 없어서 발음 들으면서 영어로 적고 해석하고 이게 맞나 했던게 10년전이네요.. 지금은 영어가사가 올라와있어서 이게 이거였구나 깨달았어요 ㅠㅠ 아름다운곡

ten years late but i still love kate 😍 she is so amazingly talented and one of my idols

Michael Arden is like crack. The guy is addicting.

I just don't feel any vulnerability from him in this song......Stuart matthew price is my favorite version!

Lola Lombardi

Same thing tends to happen to low brass in concert pieces, so I can doubly relate, being a trombonist and a contralto.

This version is so good omg

how to get this lyrics?

Yes, yes and more yes....

This is my favorite version of this song. He just makes it so beautiful and cute!

❤❤❤

Lyrics?

ugh I had to watch a soprano, tho stuck in the alto section sing this. It broke my heart!

Good god there are things I love about all versions: Aaron's angelic voice, Jeremy's humor, and now Michaels child-like excitement...NOW I REALLY DO WANT TO RUN AWAY WITH ALL THREE OF YOU!!!!!!!

I want an alto to sing this...an octave lower.

k now I want to run away with Aaron Tveit, Grant Gustin and Michael Arden

I personally think that Michael's is the best take on this but its Jeremy Jordan's version that really makes me want to run away with him

she's just overall perfect.💘

This will always be my favorite version of this song!

This song is actually from their show Wrong Number. Look at their website!!!!

Can anyone please send this to me??!!!

sopranos lament is divas lament

She would make a GREAT ELPHABA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have never heard of Janine DiVita until about 3 weeks ago or so and I am seeing her in If/Then. She follows me on Twitter and she favorites a lot of my tweets and even replies to them some times. She is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

asdfghjklahhhhhhhhhh

Michael Arden is an adorable little button and I love him

is this from a musical

This is quite possibly the most charming thing I have ever experienced. Thank you. <3

this guy has something beautyful about him but i can't just define what...

Absolutely love this song and he did amazing. But I admit I think Jeremy Jordan's version is the best ☺️

I don't see what the big deal is about singing out of tune. I do it all the time without even trying. You should hear the time I tried to sing Let It Go.
