Runaway Lyrics by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

It’s Blitz!

2009

[Verse 1]
I was feeling sad
Can't help looking back
Highways flew by
Run, run away
No sense of time
Like you to stay
Want to keep you inside

[Chorus]
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay
Want you to be my prize

[Chorus]
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay
Want you to be my prize

[Verse 2]
I was feeling sad
Can't help looking back
Highways flew by
Run, run away
No sense of time
Like you to stay
Want to keep you inside

[Bridge]
All alone
Not so strong without these open arms
Hold on tight
All alone
Not that strong without these open arms
Lie beside
All alone
Not so strong without these open arms
Lie beside

[Chorus]
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay
Want you to be my prize

[Outro]
Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Like you to stay
Want you to be my prize
