Eastside

When I was young, we fell in love
We used to hold hands, man, that was enough
Then we grew up, started to touch
Used to kiss underneath the light in the back of the bus
Oh no, your daddy didnt like me much
And he didnt believe me when I said you were the one
Oh, every day she found a way out of the window to sneak out late
He used to meet me on the Eastside
In the city where the sun dont set
And every day you know that we ride
Through the backstreets of a blue Corvette
And baby, you know I just wanna leave tonight
We can go anywhere we want
Drive down to the coast, jump in the sea
Just take my hand and come with me
Singin we can do anything if we put our minds to it
Take your whole life then you put a line through it
My love is yours if youre willing to take it
Give me your heart cause I aint gonna break it
So come away, starting today
Start a new life, together in a different place
We know that love is how all these ideas came to be
So baby, run away with me
Seventeen and we had a dream to have a family
A house and everything in between, and then, oh
Suddenly we turned twenty-three
And we got pressures for taking our life more seriously
We got our dead-end jobs and got bills to pay
Half our friends are now our enemies
And now I-, Im thinking back to when I was young
Back to the days when I was falling in love
He used to meet me on the Eastside
In the city where the sun dont set
And every day you know that we ride
Through the backstreets in a blue Corvette
And baby, you know I just wanna leave tonight
We can go anywhere we want
Drive down to the coast, jump in the sea
Just take my hand and come with me
Singin we can do anything if we put our minds to it
Take your whole life then you put a line through it
My love is yours if youre willing to take it
Give me your heart cause I aint gonna break it
So come away, starting today
Start a new life, together in a different place
We know that love is how all these ideas came to be
So baby , run away with me
Run away, now
Run away, now
Run away, now
Run away, now
We can do anything if we put our minds to it
Take your whole life then you put a line through it
My love is yours if youre willing to take it
Give me your heart cause I aint gonna break it
So come away, starting today
Start a new life, together in a different place
We know that love is how all these ideas came to be
So baby, run away with me
