"Run away with the idea that" có run away with là thừa nhận một cách vội vã -> cụm từ này nghĩa là nghĩ vội rằng, nghĩ sai lầm rằng.

Ví dụ
Don’t run away with the idea that there is nothing at stake (đang bị đe dọa) in the Fifth Test Match just because Australia have retained the Ashes. England can still draw the series and, from experience, I know how much that would mean to the current crop of players, even if the main objective of the summer has eluded (né tránh, lảng tránh) them.

Leave aside flights, why do privileged Indian children feel free to behave badly in all public spaces? It’s because their loving parents giggle (cười khúc khích) and look on proudly when they do. Because their parents reward this behavior without imposing (đặt ra) any limits or consequences. Because desi parents often let the child run away with the idea that he or she is the centre of the universe (cái rốn của vũ trụ).

But the single mum, whose 2011 debut (lần đầu tiên xuất hiện trước công chúng) album, Harmony Street, picked up Best Newcomer from the Live Ireland Music Awards ('Livies') in Chicago and made it on to the shortlist (danh sách sơ tuyển) for the BBC Folk Album of the Year, wouldn't want anyone to run away with the idea that her melodies (giai điệu) and lyrics (lời bài hát) are all "woe-betide" (nỗi buồn) and weepy (gây cảm xúc, cảm động).
