It was a beautiful day,
the sun beat down
I had the radio on,
I was drivin'
Trees flew by,
me and Del were singin' little Runaway
I was flyin'
Yeah runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery,
goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream
I felt so good
like anything was possible
I hit cruise control
and rubbed my eyes
The last three days
the rain was un-stoppable
It was always cold, no sunshine
Yeah runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery,
goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream
I rolled on as the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down
to make some time
There's something good
waitin' down this road
I'm pickin' up whatever's mine
