Ready to Run is the second track from One Direction's album Four.
Critical Reception[]
ANDPOP writer Evan Ross stated: "This song has a very Lord Huron-y feel to it, and I absolutely love that. 1D has realized that their forte is catchy guitar pop, and this song is the perfect example of that. (Bonus: there are more Zayn harmonies. *le swoon*)" [1]
Lyrics[]
[Harry]
There's a lightning in your eyes, I can't deny
Then there's me inside a sinking boat running out of time
Without you I'll never make it out alive
But I know, yes I know we'll be alright
[Liam]
There's a devil in your smile it's chasing me
And every time I turn around it's only gaining speed
There's a moment when you finally realize
There's no way you can change the rolling time
But I know, yes I know I'll be fine
[All]
This time I'm ready to run
Escape from the city and follow the sun
Cause I wanna be yours, don't you wanna be mine?
I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night
This time I'm ready to run
Wherever you are is the place I belong
Cause I wanna be free, and I wanna be loved
I will never look back now I'm ready to run
[Harry]
I'm ready to run
[Niall]
There's a future in my life I can't foresee
But less of course I stay on course to keep you next to me
[Louis]
There will always be the kind to criticize
But I know, yes I know I'll be alright
[All]
This time I'm ready to run
Escape from the city and follow the sun
Cause I wanna be yours, don't you wanna be mine?
I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night
This time I'm ready to run
Wherever you are is the place I belong
Cause I wanna be free, and I wanna be loved
I will never look back now I'm ready to run
[Zayn]
This time I'm ready to run
I keep everything that I got from your love
[Harry]
This time I'm ready to run
Escape from the city and follow the sun
[All]
Cause I wanna be yours, don't you wanna be mine?
I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night
This time I'm ready to run
Wherever you are is the place I belong
Cause I wanna be free, and I wanna be loved
I will never look back now I'm ready to run
I'm ready to run
