We know they`re right when they say we`re not ready
But all we care is how we feel right now
We`ll go ahead just the same
Prepare to take the blame
We`ll run away and get married anyhow
They warned us that we can`t live on love forever
But we just tell them we`ll get by somehow
Our problems will be greater
We`ll worry `bout them later
We`ll run away and get married anyhow
If other kids went through it
Then I know we can do it
If our love is that much stronger
It will last that much longer
It wasn`t too long ago when our folks were
Were going through the same thing we are now
But one thing they`re forgetting
A thing they`re not regretting
They ran away and got married anyhow
(Ran away and got married)
Anyhow
(Ran away and got married)
They ran away and got married anyhow
