[Intro]
[Verse]
Could have been the kiss of my life
Could have been the death of me
Could have been that I was just too scared
To wait around and see
[Verse]
You could have been a guardian angle
I could have been the wicked one
Besides the buttons on our shirts
What else did we leave undone
[Chorus]
When we ran
When we ran
When we ran
Was it just the time slipping through our hands
Right through our hands
[Verse]
Maybe I was trying to tell ya
I d never known a love so strong
Maybe in the shadows of the night
We just couldn t tell right from wrong
[Verse]
Maybe its a real-life story
Living with the sad regrets
Maybe you were just a sweet dream baby
Something that I can t forget
[Chorus]
When we ran
When we ran
When we ran
Was it just the time slipping through our hands
Right through our hands
[Bridge]
You only had to say the word
I would have turned around and heard
But as it is we can t turn back
The mind s just a loose cannon, baby
And the memories, rolling dice
We found something one time, baby
But we thought about it twice
[Chorus]
And we ran
When we ran
When we ran and we ran and we ran and we ran
