"Runaway" is a song by Irish family band the Corrs, released in September 1995 by 143, Atlantic, and Lava Records as the lead single from their first album, Forgiven, Not Forgotten (1995). It had middling chart success except in Ireland and Australia, peaking at number 10 in both countries. It was also an adult contemporary hit in Canada, reaching number two on the RPM Adult Contemporary Tracks chart. On the UK Singles Chart, it originally reached number 49, but a re-release in 1999 saw the single reach a new peak of number two on the same chart. The accompanying music video was directed by Randee St. Nicholas and filmed in Ireland.
