running back

[Verse 1]

Runnin' back, number forty-nine

You had me from the sidelines

And in the back of a Pontiac

Somethin' 'bout that first time

That puts your walls up when it don't work out

You're still holdin' on to it years from now

I bet you probably put my memory in the ground

[Chorus]

And I've had a few somebody new's

Thought about forever too

But I run away when it gets close to that

'Cause no matter how far down the road

The crazy thing is I know

If you called and said you're missin' what we had

I'd come runnin' back

[Verse 2]

Runnin' back to eighteen

Wonder if that's how you remember me

So dumb, so free

Yeah, sometimes I daydream

About runnin' back into you, homеtown Kroger

Would it still feel like it did?

Just 'cause wе grew up, don't mean we got closure

Ever since, ever since

[Chorus]

I've had a few somebody new's

Thought about forever too

But I run away when it gets close to that

'Cause no matter how far down the road

The crazy thing is I know

If you called and said you're missin' what we had

I'd come runnin' back

[Bridge]

To your car, Black Ice on the rearview

Climb in your lap drivin' home like we used to

Honestly, all you'd need to do is ask

And I'd come runnin' back

Yeah, I'd come runnin' back, oh-oh

[Chorus]

And I've had a few somebody new's

Thought about forever too

But I run away when it gets close to that

'Cause no matter how far down the road

The crazy thing is I know

If you called and said you're missin' what we had

I'd come runnin' back

Yeah, I'd come runnin' back

[Outro]

Runnin' back, number forty-nine

You had me from the sidelines
