Running
Steve T Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna light you up
A new desire
To redefine the love
And send it higher
The destination's set
We draw the arrow
Releasing all regret
It's time to let go
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Running away
Running away
Till we're alone together
Till we're the only lovers that matter
Running away
Running away
We're gonna hold each other
Until the sun sets into the water
If you can hold my hand
Learn to trust me
I'll take you over land
Under the sea
If you can leave behind
The life that owns you
And look into my eyes
Can you see a world to run to
Run to
Running away
Running away
Till we're alone together
Till we're the only lovers that matter
Come on we got so much stuff
Let's sell it for change
We're gonna hold each other
Until the sun sets into the water
We're steppin up stepping out of the rut
We're steppin up stepping out of the rut
We're letting go what's been holding us up
I'm holding on to you
We're selling up selling all of our stuff
We're selling up selling all of our stuff
Follow the sun going down and up
Rising to something new
Running away
Running away
If we belong together
We'll be the only lovers that matter
Come on we got so much stuff
Let's sell it for change
We're gonna hold each other
Until the sun sets into the water
Running away
Come on we got so much stuff
Running away
Come on we got so much love
Till we're the only lovers that matter
Come on
Come on come on baby
Running away




We're gonna hold each other
Until the sun sets into the water

I love this song! My husband and I have just made it through a serious storm, we've been together for 9 years....and well he did something he shouldn't have.....but he can't give me one good reason to walk away right now! I love him more than anything....and true love hurts more to walk away than it does to forgive! Needless to say we are recommiting to eachother and making forever longer! Even getting our wedding rings tattoo'd on I love him and my life so much right now! <3

I just heard this song on CMT, first time and O M G LOVE IT! This is DEFIANTLY one of my FAV songs!!!!!!! SO much truth in a song, with such an incredible voice!

LoveAuntAshley

I love this song.  It really is true.  Love doesn't run.  A couple of months ago I had some medical issues and spent 3 months in the hospital away from my man.  I kept feeling guilty about being apart from him and so I kept telling him that he could leave anytime and his exact words to me were "I don't know why you're telling me I can leave you, I'm not going anywhere."  Ladies, pay attention to moments like those.  They're pivotal moments in a relationship, and if you can stay together through the hard times then you can stay together period.  I guess I should add that the man I'm talking about is now my fiancé.

LoveAuntAshley that is awesome. I’ve been away from my wife for over a year. But love is such a powerful thing people don’t understand what power that word holds.

Hello

Micayla Chorney

Me and my boyfriend are in a long distance relationship and this has become our go to song. We know that no matter what, we will always be there for each other and sooner or later we will be able to be together. We just have to wait for that day. I love you, Spenc(:

Eric Quinn

Man I love this song. It has helped me and my wife though some tough times. She is in the Army, she cheated on me. I forgave her, and this song describes just how I feel. It is taking a lot of time to get her to forgive herself. I just play this song for her every time she thinks she doesn't deserve to keep me. Thank you Steve for doing this song.
