Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Stuffed my life in a backpack
Left your letter on the fridge
Keys on the counter, ring in the sink
I didn't even cross that bridge
Empty highway, yellow lines
Rearview full of yesterday
Radio off so I can hear
The things I never let you say
[Chorus]
I'm a runaway, runaway
But I'm dragging your name behind me
Every mile, every town
You're the ghost in the seat beside me
Tried to leave, but I can't escape
You stay, when everything changes
I'm a runaway, runaway
Carrying you through all these strangers
[Verse 2]
Motel curtains, barely shut
TV glow on chipped white paint
Your old sweater on the chair
Smells like us and makes me faint
Call your number, hang up fast
Watch it flashing in my hand
Who am I if I'm not yours?
Just a shadow in this land
[Chorus]
I'm a runaway, runaway
But I'm dragging your name behind me
Every mile, every town
You're the ghost in the seat beside me
Tried to leave, but I can't escape
You stay, when everything changes
I'm a runaway, runaway
Carrying you through all these strangers
