lyrics
Let’s take a rest
It’ll be alright
In time this is all gonna fade
I know a place
Where we both can hide
Far from this mess that we made
We were foolish
But we can’t turn back now
I’d redo it
But I just don’t know how
Baby we are living on the run
And we never thought it could be done
We’re still holding on as strong as ever
The punishment don’t always fit the crime
And even innocence can hurt sometimes
If we gotta fall we’ll fall together
I know it’s tough
Scraping by each day
Relying on strength to survive
The reach of the law
Is not far away
And they’ll take us dead or alive
Don’t you worry
Because I got a plan
We’ll keep moving
Until we reach the promised land
I should have known
A long long time ago
That we’d make out like bandits
We’re far from home
But I think the time has shown
That the two of us can stand it
It’ll be alright
In time this is all gonna fade
I know a place
Where we both can hide
Far from this mess that we made
We were foolish
But we can’t turn back now
I’d redo it
But I just don’t know how
Baby we are living on the run
And we never thought it could be done
We’re still holding on as strong as ever
The punishment don’t always fit the crime
And even innocence can hurt sometimes
If we gotta fall we’ll fall together
I know it’s tough
Scraping by each day
Relying on strength to survive
The reach of the law
Is not far away
And they’ll take us dead or alive
Don’t you worry
Because I got a plan
We’ll keep moving
Until we reach the promised land
I should have known
A long long time ago
That we’d make out like bandits
We’re far from home
But I think the time has shown
That the two of us can stand it
