It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
I had the radio on, I was drivin´
The trees flew by me and jack were singin´
Little runaway, I was flyin´

Yeah, runnin´ down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin´ on a mystery, goin´ wherever it leads
Runnin´ down a dream

It felt so good like anything was possible
I hit cruise control and rubbed eyes
The last three days the rain was unstoppable
It was always cold, no sunshine

Yeah, runnin´ down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin´ on a mystery, goin´ wherever it leads
Runnin´ down a dream

I rolled on as the sky grew dark
I put the pedal to the metal to make some time
Somethin´ good went down this road
I´m pickin´ up whatever is mine, mine, mine, oh mine, yeah

Yeah, runnin´ down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin´ on a mystery, goin´ wherever it leads
Runnin´ down a dream
