Sweet darlin’
I called you up and tried to warn ya
Run downstairs
I’ll drive us down to california
Where everything is blue
Sweet darlin’
I ain’t leavin without you
Your father wants to shoot me
Your mother wants me gone
But you’re a girl worth taking on the run, run
Can’t quit ya
I’ll chase it til it burns and crashes
Just maybe
Raise a phoenix from the ashes
And time will try to kill us
And space will hide the sun
But you’re a girl worth taking on the run, run
A love like western movies
The desert devil moans
I steal your heart and whip the wagons home
