Girl, you’ve got Heaven’s green eyes Dig your nails into my heart 'Til they’re soaked in blood You’ve got everything I Never knew I needed 'Til you slipped through the door And I am a forest fire And you are a tall glass of water I think I saw you When you were younger Running away on an endless summer I held you too close Until you let go Running away, away Slick American cowboy I was dancing in the shoes That my father wore You were the only green light I’d ever seen Driving this shattered boulevard And I was dry as a desert floor And you were the rain I was thirsty for I think I saw you When you were younger Running away on an endless summer I held you too close Until you let go Running away, away, away You were running away, away, away You were running away, oh Won’t you get away with me I’ll take you where the fields are green Dip me where the river’s clean And scrub away these stains Switch up this old routine Pour a little gasoline On the fire we started Before we lost our way Before we lost our way I think I saw you When you were younger Running away on an endless summer I held you too close Until you let go Running away, away, away You were running away, away, away You were running away, oh You were running away, away, away You were running away, oh You were running away, away, away You were running away, oh You were running away, away, away You were running away, oh You were running away, away, away You were running away, oh
