Arliss Nancy - Wild American Runners lyrics

"Honey, can you hear me?" Whispered the pilot to the gunner It didn't matter we were one and the same With the sh**ty conditions we were under There's blood in the back seat No sign where it's coming "Just come away with me." She's the only thing I've been running from I never turned it over When I got there she was running A drunken night found her in my eyes And we danced until the morning light was coming in I know I spoke clearly Even though we were both drunken "Come away with me tonight, we'll be wild American runners." Because if you needed time to think Well I though that you would think to ask Yeah, there's ways around these trials ahead Because we all lost everything that we had Now there ain't one thing left to hold anyone back Can't hold me back Hear it in the distance Steady, rolling in like thunder A clap of hands, a shot in the back In the steady dark of drunken summers I knew we were ruined, below the moon that we stood under But we'll get this one thing right We'll be wild American runners So if you needed time to think Well I though that you would think to ask Yeah, there's ways around these times ahead Because we all lost everything that we had Now there ain't one thing left to hold anyone back Can't hold me back But I've been placing all my sh**ty bets on her faded blue dress With nothing to keep her by my side We'll grow old and we'll all fade out like the radio But we're young and we're wild so let's run away tonight Run away tonight
