Tonight we're lovers in the Running past the graveyards in the snow Walking in the street with nowhere to go And it's no, no
Oh and the getaway driver waits outside the store He pulls away just as runs out the door Oh and Billy won't run no, no, no
Oh baby I can't lay the stars at your feet Oh but I think we could take it all, just you and Oh come on, you'll see, there's a lot of room you baby, in this front seat
Tonight we're lovers on that road (in the snow) Running past graveyards in the snow Walking in the street with nowhere to go And it's oh, oh, oh
