We know they're right when they say we're not ready
But all we care is how we feel right nowWe'll go ahead just the same
Prepare to take the blame
We'll run away and get married anyhowThey warned us that we can't live on love forever
But we just tell them we'll get by somehowOur problems will be greater
We'll worry 'bout them later
We'll run away and get married anyhowIf other kids went through it
Then I know we can do it
If our love is that much stronger
It will last that much longerIt wasn't too long ago when our folks were
We're going through the same thing we are nowBut 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
