[Intro] [Vocal A + All] Hey! Hey! We were running from the daylight Laughing at the stop signs Hey! Hey! You were trouble in a denim jacket I was falling like a bad habit [Verse 1] [Vocal C] You picked me up at half past nine With a cracked old radio and a crooked smile The road was empty, the moon was low We had nowhere but nowhere to go Your hand was warm on the steering wheel I still remember how it made me feel Like every small-town dream came true For one short summer next to you [Verse 2] [Vocal A] We wrote our names on a bathroom wall Like we were famous after all Sneaking out with our shoes untied Two wild hearts on a borrowed ride You said, “Baby, don’t be scared” So I jumped like I didn’t care Now I laugh, but I paid the price For kissing chaos twice [Pre-Chorus] [Vocal B] And I knew we were burning fast Too bright to ever last But I held on anyway Like the spark would never fade [Chorus] [All] It was a runaway summer A heartbreak thunder We were young, we were loud We were never coming down It was a midnight fever A don’t-look-back believer You left me with a scar And a song I still remember Whoa-oh, whoa-oh That runaway summer Whoa-oh, whoa-oh I lost you, but I found me after [Verse 3] [Vocal C] Your jacket’s gone, but the memory stays Like dust on a golden picture frame I don’t cry when your name comes through But sometimes I still sing about you [Post-Verse] [Vocal A] Yeah, I kept the jokes Deleted the texts Learned how to love What happens next No bitter tears No sad goodbye Just a reckless girl Learning how to fly [Bridge] [Vocal B] Maybe we crashed Maybe we shined Maybe forever Was never our kind But I won’t regret The fire we made Some hearts break loud So they can change [Breakdown] [Vocal A + All] Hey! Hey! Windows down, let the past blow out Hey! Hey! Turn it up, let me scream it loud I was yours for a little while Now I wear my own damn smile [Final Chorus] [All] [Vocal B ad-libs] It was a runaway summer A heartbreak thunder We were young, we were loud We were never coming down It was a midnight fever A don’t-look-back believer You left me with a scar And a song I still remember Whoa-oh, whoa-oh That runaway summer Whoa-oh, whoa-oh I lost you, but I found me after [Outro] [Vocal C, then All] You were the spark I was the sky We burned too fast But I survived Whoa-oh, whoa-oh Runaway summer Whoa-oh, whoa-oh I found me after you
