The Interim Songtext
von Diana Ross

I found you throwing pebbles at a star
And counting rain drops in a jar
I had forgotten that some people really are still dreaming
They are still dreaming

You never knew what fear was all about
You never felt the hollow ache of doubt
That someday you just may be without a next time
Without a next time

I wish that I was stronger and able to hold
Without the help of someone weaker, I can mold
Into the person I would like myself
To be, to be, to be

I heard a thought moving in its shell
The sound of stones dropped into a well
And all too soon it was so easy to tell
That I was winning in a game that I didn′t want to play
That I didn't want to play


I just gotta stop running away
I just gotta stop running away

I wish that I was stronger and able to hold
Without the help of someone weaker, I can mold
Into the person I would like myself
To be, to be, to be

I don′t know where it all began
But I've been running time and time again
And I'm just waiting for the moment when
I can slow it down, oh, when I can slow it down

I just gotta stop running away
I just gotta stop running away
I just gotta stop running away
Running, running, yeah, running

Won′t you help me?
Help me stop running away
Won′t you help me?
Help me stop running away, running
