Run Away She was just an average blue-eyed, golden high school dream An illusion nothing real could ever touch Funny love seemed so much more intense at seventeen When I knew she'd never love me half as much I recall the desperate vow I made I must find a way somehow to win her heart I've got to make her mine Gonna run away, till I prove that I'm a man Gonna run away, be the best I know I can Got to run away, got to find my space and time And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine Trades were made for promises of a timeless memory And I knew but still refused to comprehend The fantasy more glamorous then she could ever be Was the course of least resistance in the end I recall the desperate vow Gonna run away, till I prove that I'm a man Gonna run away, be the best I know I can Got to run away, got to find my space and time And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine
