[Verse 1]
You left your sweater on the chair
Coffee ring still there, going cold
Door slammed once, the echo stayed
Guess that’s the last thing that you chose to hold
[Chorus]
Runaway in slow motion
I keep reaching as you fade
Every step you take is breaking
All the promises we made
You were my always, my only
Now I’m talking to a ghost
Runaway in slow motion
And I’m losing you the most
[Verse 2]
Your side of the bed still untouched
Phone lights up with your old name
I type a message, then delete
I only answer memories and blame
[Chorus]
Runaway in slow motion
I keep reaching as you fade
Every step you take is breaking
All the promises we made
You were my always, my only
Now I’m talking to a ghost
Runaway in slow motion
And I’m losing you the most
[Bridge]
Did you cry in the rearview?
Did you drive straight through the night? (oh)
All the roads we planned together
Turned to roads that left me behind
[Chorus]
Runaway in slow motion
I keep reaching as you fade
Every step you take is breaking
All the promises we made
You were my always, my only
Now I’m staring at the door
Runaway in slow motion
Till I can’t feel you anymore
