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
