It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down

I had the radio on, I was drivin'

The trees went by, me and Del were singin'

Little Runaway, I was flyin'

Yeah runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

I'm runnin' down a dream

I felt so good, like anything was possible

I hit cruise control and rubbed eyes

The last three days the rain was unstoppabl e

It was always cold, no sun shine

Yeah runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

I'm runnin' down a dream

I rolled on as the sky grew dark

I put the pedal down to make some time

There's something good waitin' down this road

I'm pickin' up whatever is mine

Yeah runnin' down a dream

That never would come to me

Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads

I'm runnin' down a dream
