[Intro]
- x2
[Verse]
Blonde hair bl
owing in the s
ummer wind
Blue eyed girl
playing in th
e sand
I've been on t
he trail for a
little while
But that was t
he night that
she broke down
and held my h
and
Teenage rush
She said
Ain't we all j
ust runaways?
We got time an
d that ain't m
uch
[Chorus]
We can't wait
'till tomorrow
You gotta know
that this is
real
Baby, why you
wanna fight it
?
It's the one t
hing you can't
choose
Oh!
[Verse]
We got engaged
on a friday n
ight
I swore on the
head of our u
nborn child
That I could t
ake care of th
e three of us
But I've got t
he tendency to
slip when the
nights get wi
ld
It's in my blo
od
You said she
might just ru
naway
Somewhere else
, someplace go
od
[Chorus]
We can't wait
'till tomorrow
You gotta know
that this is
real
Baby, why you
wanna fight it
?
It's the one t
hing you can't
choose
Let's take a c
hance, baby we
can't lose
[Post-Chorus]
Ain't we all j
ust runaways?
I knew it when
I met you
I'm not gonna
let you runawa
y
I knew it when
I held you
I wasn't letti
ng go
[Verse]
We used to loo
k at the stars
and confess o
ur dreams
Hold each othe
r 'till the mo
rning light
We used to lau
gh, now we onl
y fight
Baby are you l
onesome now?
At night I com
e home after t
hey go to slee
p
Like a stumbli
ng ghost I hau
nt this hall
There's a pict
ure of us on o
ur wedding day
I recognize th
e girl but I c
an't settle in
these walls
[Chorus]
We can't wait
'till tomorrow
No we're caugh
t up in the ap
peal
Baby, why you
wanna hide it?
It's the last
thing on my mi
nd (Why you wa
nna hide it?)
I turn the eng
ine over and m
y body just co
mes alive
[Post-Chorus]
Ain't we all j
ust runaways?
I knew it when
I met you
I'm not gonna
let you runawa
y
I knew it when
I held you
I wasn't letti
ng go
[Outro]
Ain't we all j
