I know you’re panicked now, but I don’t think we should go
People sow when they want to reap, now we’re reaping what we’ve sown
You looked much older than sixteen when we first met
That doesn’t matter now, we have no room for regret

So run away with me (you want to drive all night)
Run away with me (that wouldn't be right)
Run away with me (but I don't want to fight)
Just run away with me (run away with me)

I don't give a damn about what happened yesterday
It was only a matter of time before they found out anyway
You say when you’re Dad finds out he will go for his gun
But it’s not like me to leave, it’s not like me to run

So run away with me (you want to drive all night)
Run away with me (that wouldn't be right)
Run away with me (but I don't want to fight)
Just run away with me (run away with me)

You want to hit the road, you want to leave this place behind
You'll feel much better once we cross the state line
Even though I know that leaving never solved a thing
I’ll stay right by your side; I’ll get you that big ring

So run away with me (we could leave tonight)
Run away with me (it could turn out alright)
Run away with me (baby, I just might)
Run away with me (run away with me)
