lyrics

Be mine sometime
Someday like today
Take my life line
And we can be far away

Throw away your worries and woes
As we lie on the beach and we curl our toes
And let the cool of the water feel good with the heat of the sun
Pack up your material things
And we will pick a new direction and see what it brings
It's you and me on the run

Let's go, start slow
Don't wait, it's not too late
You know as well as I know
That we could be far away

Say goodbye to all of your bills
And your rent and your job and your run of the mills
And the burden on your back that feels like it's weighing a ton
Give up your material things
And we will pick a new direction and see what it brings
It's you and me on the run

I don't want to stay here playing the game
Day after day, it's all the same
How 'bout you and me get away
For one more day

Come on, get real gone
We'll take my Chevrolet on the interstate
We'll drive until the dawn
So won't you come along
And we will be far away

Give up all the struggle and strife
And the troublesome things that always tangle your life
Or it'll all be over and you won't even have any fun
Throw away your worries and woes
As we pick a new direction and see where it goes
It's you and me on the run
