Runaways
Blonde hair blowin' in the summer windA blue-eyed girl playing in the sandI'd been on a trail for a little whileBut that was the night that she broke down and held my handThe teenage rush, she said, 'maybe I'll just runaway, we got time'Well that ain't much...We can't wait 'til tomorrowYou gotta know that this is real, baby why you wanna fight it?It's the one thing you can choose, oh!
We got engaged on a Friday nightI swore on the head of our unborn child that I could take care of the three of usBut I got the tendency to slip when the nights get wild.It's in my bloodShe says she might just runaway somewhere else, some place goodWe can't wait 'til tomorrowYou gotta know that this is real, baby why you wanna fight it?It's the one thing you can choose
Let's take a chance baby we can't loseMean we're all just runawaysI knew that when I met you, I'm not gonna let you runawayI knew that when I held you, I wasn't lettin' go
We used to look at the stars and confess our dreamsHold each other to the morning lightWe used to laugh, now we only fightBaby are you lonesome now?
At night I come home after they go to sleepLike a stumbling ghost, I haunt these hallsThere's a picture of us on our wedding dayI recognize the girl but I can't settle in these walls
We can't wait 'til tomorrowNo we're caught up in the appeal, baby why you wanna hide it?It's the last thing on my mind(Why you wanna hide it?)I turn the engine over and my body just comes alive and we all just runawayI knew that when I met you, I'm not gonna let you runawayI knew that when I held you, I wasn't lettin go, no no no!(No no no!)(And we're all just runaways)Yeah runaway(And we're all just runaways)Yeah
