"I Run to You" is a song recorded by American country music group Lady Antebellum. It was released in January 2009 as the third and final single from the group's self-titled debut album. Hillary Scott, Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood, who comprise Lady Antebellum, co-wrote the song with Tom Douglas. "I Run to You" is the group's first Number One single, reaching that peak in July 2009. The song appears on Now That's What I Call Country Volume 2 and Now That's What I Call Music 31.
The song won the 2009 CMA Single of the Year Award on November 11, 2009. It won the Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal and was also nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Country Song on December 2, 2009, but lost to Taylor Swift's "White Horse".
In the UK and Europe, "I Run to You" was the second single taken from their Need You Now album. It was released on 9 August 2010 in support of their debut UK live show at Shepherd's Bush Empire. The single made the A-list playlist on BBC Radio 2.
"I Run to You" is a mid-tempo with electric guitar and string section accompaniment. In it, the narrators — lead singers Charles Kelley and Hillary Scott — claim that they turn to each other to escape the negativity and prejudice of the world.
