Below, you will find the lyrics for Runaways by The Killers.
Verse 1
Blonde hair blowin in the summer wind
A blue-eyed girl playing in the sand
I'd been on a trail for a little while
But that was the night
That she broke down and held my hand
Prechorus 1
The teenage rush, she said
Here we are just runaway, we got time
Well that aint much
Chorus 1
We cant wait til tomorrow
You gotta know that this is real
Baby, why you wanna fight it?
Its the one thing you can choose
Verse 2
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 got the tendency to slip
When the nights get wild
It's in my blood
She says she might just runaway somewhere else
Some place good
Chorus 2
We can't wait til tomorrow
You gotta know that this is real baby
Why you wanna fight it?
It's the one thing you can choose
Postchorus 1
Let's take a chance baby we can't lose
Ain't we all just runaways
I knew that when I met you
I'm not gonna let you runaway
I knew that when I held you
I wasn't lettin' go
Verse 3
We used to look at the stars and confess our dreams
Hold each other to the morning light
We used to laugh, now we only fight
Baby are you lonesome now?
At night I come home after they go to sleep
Like a stumbling ghost, I haunt these halls
There's a picture of us on our wedding day
I recognize the girl but I can't settle in these walls
Bridge
We can't wait til tomorrow
No 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 runaway
Postchorus 2
I knew that when I met you
I'm not gonna let you runaway
I knew that when I held you
I wasn't lettin' go
Outro
And were all just runaways
Yeah, runaway
