She said goodbye to her daddy while her mamma cried
  I kept the motor runnin' in my car outside
  She kissed him on the cheek, daddy's little girl
  Then a woman walked out to take on the world
    Through red taillights and a cloud of dust
  We went flyin' through the night, it was all about us
  Sittin' on the seat right next to me, we drove with a tank full of destiny
    [Chorus]
  She was born to run
  She was born to run
  She was born to run born to run to me
    With a new world waitin' down the road up ahead
  Passion runnin' wild through our hearts and heads
  With everything we owned packed in the backseat
  We had each other, that was all we needed
    They all called me crazy, said she'd never settle down
  I was just her ticket, her ticket out of town
  But it looks like that night fate proved 'em wrong
  'Cause she's been mine, mine all along
    [Repeat Chorus]
    It's been years now and I never doubted
  Somewhere, somehow we'd make through
  She's still here, no two ways about it
  Her heart's still mine and her love's still true
    She was born to run
  Was the Master's plan
  Born to run
  Put her heart in my hand
  Born to run born to run to me
  [Repeat]
