I took a jet, had to leave, so I left, bought a car that was fast
Trying to get past her love
I can run, I can hide, I can drive, I can fly
But so far, it ain't far enough

There's a message on my cell phone I can't erase
It's her and the sound of her voice that takes me back
Across seven states

I guess the heart of the matter
Is I just can't forget her
She's like a ghost that haunts me everywhere I go
See her face on a Billboard sign
See her name in the stars at night
She's that shadow in my dreams always chasing me
I can't outrun her memory

I took it east, took it west to the beach where I sat in the sand
Ran as far as the waves
Another town another crowd, it's quiet when it's loud
But still her voice calls my name

Even if I was moving at the speed of light, I couldn't get away
Somehow I gotta face the fact that when I look back
It's hard to look away

I guess the heart of the matter
Is I just can't forget her
She's like a ghost that haunts me everywhere I go
See her face on a Billboard sign
See her name in the stars at night
She's that shadow in my dreams always chasing me
I can't outrun her memory

Her memory's beating in my heart like a drum I can't turn off
She's where I start, where I end, she's back again
And she won't stop

I can't outrun her memory
I can't outrun her memory
I can't outrun her memory
I can't outrun her
I can't outrun her
I can't outrun her memory
I can't outrun her memory
