Runaway Lyrics

You don't know how much I love you
buit I love you like the sun
I'd like to put my arms around you
and we could runaway

if you knew how much I miss you
oh and I miss you more and more each day
I'd really like o come and see you
and we could runaway
sun is comin' and it's getting warmer
they tell me spring is just around the corner
I been sitting watchin' all the flowers
birds are singin' getting louder and louder

and here I am missin' you
and here I go I'm lovin' you
run run run run runnin'
if you knew how much I need you
oh and I need you like the air
and if someone should takey you from me
well then I'd runaway...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is very special to me. I remember hearing it on FM while looking at the girl I loved. The lyrics are perfect for how I felt about her. I'm sure she suspected how I felt, but I could never get as close to her as I wanted and I don't think I ever confessed my feelings. She was never quite that interested in me and I feared telling her my feelings would push her away. I would have given anything to put my arms around her run and run run run away and I loved her like the Sun.

wrong lyrics. it is NOT "here I go" the word used is ERGO which means therefore, consequently. as in:

Here I am... Missin' you Ergo, I'm lovin' you Run run run run runnin' Ergo, I'm wantin' you Run run run run runnin' Ergo, I'm needin' you Run run run run runnin' Ergo, I'm lovin' you Run run run run runnin' Run, run, run, run, runaway

@walker1161 If that's how you want to hear it...fine, but you're wrong. It says "Here I go"...(The lyrics are printed on the album jacket)
