She said Good-bye to her Daddy, while her Mama cried
I kept the motor runnin' in my car outside
She kissed him on the cheek, Daddy's little girl
Then a woman walked out to take on the world
Through red tail lights and a cloud of dust
We went flyin' through the night, it was all about us
Sittin' in the seat, right next to me
We drove off with a tank full of gasoline
Chorus:
She was born to run
She was born to run
Yeah she was born to run
Born to run to me
With a new world waitin' down the road up ahead
Passions runnin' wild through our hearts and our heads
With everything we owned packed in the backseat
Yeah we had each other, that was all we'd need
They all called me crazy, said she'd never settle down
I was just her ticket, her ticket outta town
Well it looks like that night may prove 'em wrong
She's been mine, mine all along
Chorus:
It's been years now and I've never doubted
Somewhere, somehow we'd make it through
She's right here, no two ways about it
Her heart's stil mine and her love's still true
Chorus 2:
She was born to run, was the Master's plan
Born to run, put her heart in my hand
Born to run
Born to run to me
