Lyrics
Steven: It's time to get moving, time for us to have some fun. There's no time to hang around, our adventure's just begun. We'll be thinking 'bout our friends as we chase the setting sun. Both: But we're leaving them behind, we're on the run. (Steven: We're on the run) Amethyst: I don't care about what all the others say. (We're on the run) Well I guess there are some things that will just never go away. (We're on the run) I wish that I could see that there's no better place than home. Both: But home's a place that I have never known. That's why we're on the run... |

Trivia
- According to Jeff Liu, he "originally wrote the song in D major, but had to adjust it to B-flat major to fit both Steven and Amethyst’s voice actors' (Zach Callison and Michaela Dietz's) voice ranges".[1]
