Love on the Run

A pretty girl in transition,
it's on her face, she is wishing
that she had a fucking clue.

Mud on her shoes, her hair in knots
smoke in the air, she smells like pot
you just can't tell her what to do

but you're lucky cause she wants you.
she's got you hooked, like the late news
your hearts been broken into

she said, "take me with you if you're leaving
I'm always looking for some place to go.
You look like you might be a good thing
but if I stay here, well, I'll never know"
it's always the way with girls like this one
it'll blind side you, love on the run.

soda pop fizz and mint on her breath
you want her till you got nothing left
anything for that coca cola kiss

in her red dress under the lights
her dark hair is falling just right
every strand and every twist

not much to say till you're alone
she waited all day to get you home
in the dark shes hard to resist.

she said, "take me with you if you're leaving
I'm always looking for some place to go.
You look like you might be a good thing
but if I stay here, well, I'll never know"
it's always the way with girls like this one
it'll blind side you, love on the run.

but do you think she doesn't feel?
she's still a girl, she's still real.
she doesn't have it figured out

and what you think is nonchalance
is her wishing you'd ask her to dance
well, won't you ask her to dance now?

she said, "take me with you if you're leaving
I'm always looking for some place to go.
You look like you might be a good thing
but if I stay here, well, I'll never know"
it's always the way with girls like this one
it'll blind side you, love on the run.
