There's a lightning in your eyes I can't deny
Then there's me inside a sinking boat, running out of time
Without you, I'll never make it out alive
But I know, yes, I know, we'll be alright
There's a devil in your smile, it's chasing me
And every time I turn around, it's only gaining speed
There's a moment when you finally realize
There's no way you can change the rolling tide
But I know, yes, I know, that I'll be fine
This time I'm ready to run (Oh-oh)
Escape from the city and follow the sun
'Cause I wanna be yours
Don't you wanna be mine?
I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night
This time I'm ready to run (Oh-oh)
Wherever you are, is the place I belong
'Cause I wanna be free
And I wanna be young
I will never look back, now I'm ready to run
I'm ready to run
There's a future in my life I can't foresee
Unless, of course, I stay on course and keep you next to me
There will always be the kind that criticize
But I know, yes, I know, we'll be alright
This time I'm ready to run (Oh-oh)
Escape from the city and follow the sun
'Cause I wanna be yours
Don't you wanna be mine?
I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night
This time I'm ready to run (Oh-oh)
Wherever you are, is the place I belong
'Cause I wanna be free
And I wanna be young
I will never look back, now I'm ready to run
This time I'm ready to run (Ready to run)
I'd give everything that I got for your love
This time I'm ready to run
Escape from the city and follow the sun
'Cause I wanna be yours
Don't you wanna be mine?
I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night
This time I'm ready to run (This time I'm ready to run)
Wherever you are, is the place I belong
'Cause I wanna be free
And I wanna be young
I will never look back, now I'm ready to run
