Hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
Workin’ on a mystery, I'm goin’ wherever it leads
I put the pedal down to make some time
That never would come to me
Workin’ on a mystery, goin’ wherever it leads
Runnin’ down a dream
It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
There’s something good, waitin’ down this road
Little runaway, I was flyin’
I’m picking up whatever is mine
I’m runnin’ down a dream
It was always cold, no sun shine
Yeah, I’m runnin’ down a dream
Workin’ on a mystery, goin’ wherever it leads
Trees went by, me and Del were singin’
Runnin’ down a dream

Yeah, runnin’ down a dream
That never would come to me
I’m runnin’ down a dream
I felt so good, like anything was possible
The last three days and the rain was unstoppable
I rolled on, the sky grew dark
I had the radio on, I was drivin’
Workin’ on a mystery, goin’ wherever it leads
Runnin’ down a dream
That never would come to me
Yeah, runnin’ down a dream
That never would come to me
