Text wrapping and absolute positioning

I have a text field which displays as intended: all text on one line when set to position relative:

but as soon as I set it to absolute position, the text decides to start wrapping despite the fact that the width is set to auto (height is set to 20px):

why is this and how do I fix it?
Thanks
