Run

"Why don't you run" you asked me on our first date.
Well, we couldn't really call it a date 'cause you & I never planned on a accost. 
Yes, I can be a smart aleck  sometimes but I trust that you can be wise and into your
heart & say.
"I forgive you. I don't know what came over me."
Take me away to a better place, where you and I can just be ourselves.
No, pressure from your family or your friend. It can always just be you and me.

I wish that we could
run away together. For
all eternity. 

That's my only wish, so please answer my cry.
