[Verse 1]
The road ahead is open wide, no map, no plan, no guide
Just the wind and the whispering trees, I’m alone but I feel alive
Windows down, the radio’s playing, I’m singing out loud, no one’s complaining
Freedom’s a friend that rides with me, in this car, I’m finally free
[Chorus]
Runaway road, where do you go?
Taking me far, taking me slow
The sky ahead so blue and wide
But the rearview mirror keeps catching my eye
On this runaway road
Runaway Road
[Interlude]
[Verse 2]
Coffee cups and neon signs, they blur together, crossing state lines
And though I push the pedal down, there's a longing that I can't drown
Every twist and turn, every road I chase, every new and curious place
Somehow it all circles back, to the ghost of the place that I once called home
[Chorus]
Runaway road, where do you go?
Taking me far, taking me slow
The sky ahead so blue and wide
But the rearview mirror keeps catching my eye
On this runaway road
Runaway Road
[Bridge]
Moonrise, stars above, rolling wheels whisper our broken love
Can't escape this pain inside, driving on with nowhere to hide
I'm driving on
Haunted by what we had
[Chorus]
Runaway road, where do you go?
Taking me far, taking me slow
The sky ahead so blue and wide
But the rearview mirror keeps catching my eye
On this runaway road
Runaway Road
[Outro]
So here I am, still on the run, chasing shadows, avoiding the sun
Wondering if you feel the same, broken in love, united in pain
And until we meet again, this runaway road’s my only friend
With the freedom of the open sky, and a broken heart I can’t deny
