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 it's 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?       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
