"Love Runs Out" is a song recorded by American pop rock band OneRepublic for the 2014 reissue of their third studio album Native (2013). It was produced by Ryan Tedder, who co-wrote the song with Brent Kutzle, Drew Brown, Zach Filkins, and Eddie Fisher. The song was digitally released in Australia on April 14, 2014, and was serviced to contemporary hit radio in the United States on May 6 as the fifth overall single from the album.

The song was featured in the soundtrack for the video game NBA 2K15 and in promotions for the ABC drama How to Get Away with Murder and The X Factor (UK).

Background

The song was originally intended to be the first single from Native. Tedder told CapitalFM, "We have a new single that's not even on the album that's about to drop. I can't quote the date," and "I wanted it to be the first single, a few of us in the band did, but I could not finish the chorus. And you can't have a song without a chorus."[2]

Composition

According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com by Sony/ATV Music Publishing, "Love Runs Out" is written in the key of G minor with a moderate tempo of 120 beats per minute. The vocals span from D3 to D5 in the song.[3]

Music video

A music video was produced for the song. It cost the group $180,000. The video has references to Sade's other video "Soldier of Love".[4]
