Song: Run Away With Me

I know I talked about this song in yesterday's post but I have been listening to it more and more so I decided to give it it's own post. Run Away With Me is one of those songs that just makes me want to cry when I listen to it, not because it's sad but because I want this song to be my life. I want some guy to come to my window and ask me to run away with him. It's a song that makes me cry because I wish that this would happen to me. Here are the lyrics:

Run Away With Me

Let me catch my breath--this is really hard
If I start to look like I'm sweating, well that's cause I am
I'm not good with words, but that's nothing new
Still, I have to try to explain what I want to do...with you

If you run away with me, let me be your ride out of town
Let me be the place that you hide; we can make our lives on-the-go
Run away with me; Texas in the summer's cool
We'll be on the road like Jack Kerouac
Looking back, Sam, you're ready; let's go anywhere
Get the car packed and throw me the key; run away with me

Sam, I know it's fast; I'm in love with you
Sam, it's crazy but Sam, I'm crazier for you
I have these plans, Sam, I have these plans
Of a house that we build on the bay when we run away

Let me be your ride out of town; let me be the place that you hide
We can make our lives on-the-go; run away with me
Alabama heat--sign me up
We'll be on the road like some country song; won't be long
Sam, you're ready, let's go...anywhere
Get the car packed and throw me the key; run away with me

I'm not trying to make you a wife here
I'm not trying to tie you down
I'm just saying there might be a life here--
A new one as soon as we run, just as soon as we run, run away

Let me be your ride out of town; let me be the place that you hide
We can make our lives on-the-go; run away with me
Mississippi mud-- watch me slide
We'll be on the road like Jack Kerouac
Looking back; Sam, you're ready, Sam

Let me be your ride out of town; run away with me
California dreams here we come
Romeo is calling for Juliet
Ready, set, Sam, you're ready
Let's go...anywhere
Say the word and I'm already there

Run away with me

Now can you see why it makes me cry? For all the ladies reading this, hang in there. I'm pretty sure all of you want this to happen just as much as I do. And for all the guys out there, don't hesitate, we are waiting for you and girls don't wait forever.

If you are looking into buying this song on iTunes, type in Run Away With Me and if I'm not mistaking, it's the first one. Anyway, it's the one sung by Josh Young. I know, it's not quite as good as the video of Aaron Tveit singing it, but I usually end up shouting the lyrics at the top of my lungs so I can't here him singing anyway. I did a little bit of research and figured out that this song is also in a musical called The Unauthorized Autobiography of Samantha Brown. This musical is a brand new musical that hasn't even hit Broadway yet but I have a feeling that it won't take long for it to get there. If you want to know more about The Unauthorized Autobiography of Samantha Brown, go to google and type it in and click on the first site that says Broadway. Nothing else, just Broadway and you can read about the musical and listen to the music.

Well, this is possibly my new favorite song. And guess what...I ALREADY HAVE IT MEMORIZED! Which means I have already listened to is about fifty times in two days and it still hasn't gotten old! Love it! Leave me some comments on what you think of this song! But if you are going to leave one that says you don't like it, please save me the trouble of beating you up and just don't write anything. Thanks! :)
