rock, Bright pop-rock duet; female and male vocals trading quick-fire lines in the verses over crisp drums, chiming electric guitars, and a driving bass. Pre-chorus lifts with tambourine, airy “ooh” stacks, and rising tension. Choruses explode into locked harmonies on the title line with a soaring melodic tag.

Lyrics
Verse 1
(F) Tossing the keys on the table
(M) Heartbeat loud like it’s ready to go
(F) Backpack packed with the barest essentials
(M) Your note on the fridge saying “thought you should know”
Pre-Chorus
(F) Every map on my wall
(M) Every dot
Every town
(F) Keeps on calling me out
(M) I can’t keep my feet on the ground
(F) Are you coming along?
(M) Or watching me fade from your view
Chorus
(F+M) I’m gonna run over the mountains
Kick up the dust
Chase down the dawn
I’m gonna run over the mountains
Till the weight of this place is gone
Leave the fear in the valley
Let the sky pull me along
I’m gonna run over the mountains
Till I finally feel where I belong (woah)
Verse 2
(M) You’re at the door with your old worn jacket
(F) Saying
“Wait up
You’re not going alone”
(M) Guess I got tired of my careful habits
(F) Guess you got tired of talking on phones
Pre-Chorus
(M) Every “maybe
Not yet”
(F) Every promise delayed
(M) Falls off the edge of the cliff
(F) When we’re standing here unafraid
(M) Do we jump
Do we stay?
(F) Or write a new story today
Chorus
(F+M) We’re gonna run over the mountains
Kick up the dust
Chase down the dawn
We’re gonna run over the mountains
Till the weight of this place is gone
Leave the fear in the valley
Let the sky pull us along
We’re gonna run over the mountains
Till we finally feel where we belong (yeah)
Bridge
[Halftime
Palm-muted guitar]
(F) If we get lost
Will you still hold my hand?
(M) If we fall down
We get up
We just laugh
(F) Every wrong turn still gets us somewhere
(M) As long as it gets us away from the past
(F) Say you’ll run
(M) Say you’ll stay out here with me
(F+M) Out where the air tastes like possibility (ooh)
Chorus
[Full band
Higher key]
(F+M) We’re gonna run over the mountains
Kick up the dust
Chase down the dawn
We’re gonna run over the mountains
Till the weight of this place is gone
Leave the fear in the valley
Let the sky pull us along
We’re gonna run over the mountains
Till we finally feel where we belong
Chorus
(F+M) We’re gonna run over the mountains
Voices loud
Hearts beating strong
We’re gonna run over the mountains
Till the old life’s faded and gone
Leave the fear in the valley
Sing our names into the sun
We’re gonna run over the mountains
Till the running and the dreaming are one (woah)
