Verse 1
We were living and breathing in a small town
Just one or two friends were hanging around
Every Friday night we went to the bar
We saved up some money to buy an old car
But the truth of the story is life was a bore
And we both knew we wanted much more
Chorus
Let's go run away
I think we can find a way
To keep our love alive
Life was such a chore
We both needed more
To keep our love alive
I just want to say
Give us another day
Keep our love alive
Verse 2
Your sister got married in that small town
But now that life keeps dragging her down
We both knew we had to break free
And I really wanted to get down on one knee
That day I told you, come take my hand
Here's what we'll do, I've got a big plan
Chorus
Verse 3
It's been many years since we left that town
Since then our faces never had one frown
We have three kids and a white picket fence
We tell our old friends that life is the best
The truth of the story is life was a bore
We both knew we wanted much more
Chorus - repeat and fade
