I had a good girl who thought the world of me

Made me believe that I could do anything

So I got a good job, could set us up for good

I liked it and made more than I should

Couldn't find a better ending in Hollywood

But I'm a runner

I'm a runner

I got some good friends I try to see when i'm back home

But I'm the first one to take off down the road

Cause I got a big dream, the only thing that sets me free

But I let up on the pedal when I'm on the brink

Like a Minnesota rain rides a Mississippi wave

I run away from good things every day

Don't ask me why, believe me I've tried

To understand what's going on in my mind

I'll find my way one way or another

But I'm a runner

I'm a runner

Like a Minnesota rain rides a Mississippi wave

I run away from good things every day

Don't ask me why, believe me I've tried

To understand what's going on in my mind

I'll find my way one way or another

But I'm a runner

I'm a runner

I'm a runner

I'm a runner

I'm a runner

I had a good girl who thought the world of me

Made me believe that I could do anything
