Lyrics Runaways (Michel remix) - The Killers

Blonde hair blowing in the summer wind
A blue-eyed girl playing in the sand
I've been on her 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 got the tendency to slip when the nights get wild
It's in my blood
She said she might just run away somewhere else
Some place 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 run away
I knew it when I held 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?

That 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 groom but I can't settle in these 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 thing on my mind
(Why you wanna hide it?)
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 run away
I knew it when I held you I wasn't letting go
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

Ain't we all just runaways?
Yeah, run away!
Ain't we all just runaways?
Yeah!
