I was hoping you might wanna run away with me tonight
Pack our bags,
meet at the airport Board the next departing flight
There ain't no need for questions,
certainly No need for tears or fright
We only got one life
I was hoping you might wanna stay with me until I'm old
I've nothing in the bank except for stories of how I spent it all
And I've shared one too many secrets that I never should have told
That's how it goes Life's perfect if you let it
Sad if you regret it Magic if you meant it
It's all in how you spend it
I was hoping we might hitch a ride together in the cold
On a roadside somewhere south Maybe you'd offer me your clothes
I don't need a tune to dance Just waltz me up and down the road
Let the cars all go
Life's perfect if you let it Sad if you regret it
Magic if you meant it It's all about feeling satisfied but empty
You've nothing but you've
plenty Make it worth it when it's ended
It's all in how you spend it You're crying on the front porch
Then you're laughing at the back door You're busy,
then you're bored
Then you're going insane
You're homesick in a hotel
Then you're aching just to see the world
Then you swear you'll never say or do things
the same
But it happens anyway
Life's perfect if you let it Sad if you regret it
Magic if you meant it Life's perfect if you let it
Sad if you regret it Magic if you meant it
It's all about feeling satisfied but empty
You've nothing but you've
plenty Make it worth it when it's ended
