When We Ran Lyrics - John Hiatt

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 

You could have been a guardian angle 

I could have been the wicked one 

Besides the buttons on our shirts, girl, 

What else did we leave undone? 

When we ran 

When we ran 

When we ran 

When we ran 

Was it just the time slippin' through our hands? 

Right through our hands

Maybe I was tryin' 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 

Maybe its a real-life story 

Livin' with the sad regrets 

Maybe it was just a sweet dream baby 

Somethin' that I can't forget 

When we ran 

when we ran 

when we ran 

Was it just the time slippin' through our hands? 

Photos 

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 trash can, baby 

And the memories, rolling dice 

We had something one time, girl, 

But we thought about it twice 

When we ran 

when we ran 

When we ran 

When we ran 

We ran 

we ran 

we ran 

When we ran 

When we ran
