The Bike was on the street Outside a midtown bar He went looking for a drink Wasn't looking very hard She was sitting on his seat When he came out the door She said "run away with me." He'd heard the line before He said "better men than me have been all but left behind." She said "we're doing pretty good if we can just get out alive."
She wrapped her arms around his waist Nowhere to run to anyways They bolted out into the streets Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful Unknown and beautiful Unknown and beautiful Unknown and beautiful Into the streets
Too many nights alone Too many days gone by With nothing much to show She was running out of time He was all she'd ever need If they could just outrun the past She said "run away with me." She tried but couldn't laugh He said "lesser men than me have put up better fights." She said "we're doing pretty good if we can just get out alive."
She wrapped her arms around his waist Nowhere to run to anyways They bolted out into the streets Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful Unknown and beautiful Unknown and beautiful Unknown and beautiful
Freedom was all that she owned She moved faster all on her own But the freedom had left her, left her drifting like smoke Left her drifting like smoke
He'd come on off the road On his shoulder laid her cheek The bitter taste of smoke The bike between her knees The engine running loud Couldn't hear her if he tried She spoke into the wind, "Run away with me tonight."
