Runaway Bride lyrics

[Intro]
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down, only gonna let you down
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down

[Verse 1]
I was born in the 87th year on the beautiful streets of sinners
Make my way down to New Orleans, watch the strip fill up with winds

[Pre-Chorus]
When I hold my breath I feel I'm sinkin'
Every hole I dug I see it deepen

[Chorus]
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down, only gonna let you down
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down, oh-oh-oh-oh
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down (down), only gonna let you down
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down, gonna let you down

[Verse 2]
Watch the sky on the 4th of July, feel the emptiness burst inside me
See my grandmother pass [?] life, move this fast, watch her pass right beside me
It's like I feel like life is too real, and I'm hidin', she's tryin' to find me

[Pre-Chorus - Variation]
I fear this life will get the best of me
Every time that I stick on a dime, push right back
[Chorus]
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down, only gonna let you down (Oh-oh)
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down, oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh)
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down (down), only gonna let you down (Oh-oh)
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down (Oh-oh)

[Outro]
Just like a runaway, runaway, runaway (Oh-oh)
Like a runaway bride
Just like a runaway, runaway, runaway (Oh-oh)
Like a runaway bride

Like a runaway bride gonna let you down, only gonna let you down
Like a runaway bride gonna let you down
