Runaway

We'll drop it all, the day to day.
What peace could we find here anyway?

Because there's a hurricane within, that rips at my flesh.
Tears away at the facade of an oh so content heart.
And I swear this savage storm will wear my soul thin.
So lover I'll lead you through the day if you lead me through the dark.

We'll take the back roads and live the high life.
Your hand in mine and my soul in yours.
We'll lay in the rain and dance in the wind,
We'll swig back Jack and talk of how we never lived before.
Under a star scattered sky we'll travel by moonlight,
Find a town we don't know but make it ours for the night.

And maybe we'll find that peace we never could,
And maybe we'll find that love we never would.

But that's not who we are, not just yet.
Don't let our youth spoil that dream and breed this regret.

One day.
