Killers - Runaways lyrics

<b>Runaways</b> by <i>Killers</i><br />Blonde hair blowing in the summer wind


A blue eyed girl playing in the sand


I've been on a trail for a little while


But that was the night that she broke down and held my hand


Teenage rush, she said, ain't we all just runaways


We got time


But that ain't much





We can't wait till tomorrow


You 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 night


I swore on the head of our unborn child


That I could take care of the three of us


But I have the tendency to slip when the night's still wild


It's in my blood


She said she might just runaway somewhere else


Someplace good



We can't wait till tomorrow


You 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 lose


Ain't we all just runaways


I knew it when I met you


I'm not gonna let you


Runaway


I knew it when I had you
I wasn't letting go



We used to look at the stars and confess our dreams


Hold each other till the morning light


We used to laugh now we only fight


Baby are you lonesome now



And then I come after they go to sleep

Like a stumbling ghost, I'll haunt this halls


There's a picture of us on our wedding day


I recognize the girl but I can't settle in this walls



We can't wait till tomorrow


Now we're caught up in the appeal baby why you wanna hide it


It's the last day on my mind


I turn the engine over and my body just comes alive



Ain't we all just runaways


I knew it when I met you


I'm not gonna let you
Runaway


I knew it when I had you


I wasn't letting go
