We know most people they get tiresome we gotta find a way to get around them
The open road it ain't my home but when you're close everyone else looks lonesome
Let's hitch a ride to somewhere stark where the law won't recognize your face
I'll hold you close, we'll find new names and then forget why we are running

Tell me
We're in this together
Relax
I won't let them near you

I heard they got a sun of gold that shines down on Mexico
When we get there all tired and broke we'll leave the camaro in the desert
If we get caught I wouldn't turn you in, I would pretend like I don't know you, if I had to
It'd break my heart but if I knew you got away it'd give me peace of mind till the day I died

Tell me
We're in this together
Relax
I won't let them near you

But I awoke to blaring sirens so I covered you with my jacket
They bound my hands with metal bands but I screamed to be distracting
I drove away in their back seat, saw your crying eyes behind the tumble weeds
When I get out, I'll come to find you, cause you're my other half, I never told you that, never told you that

Tell me
We're in this together
Relax
I won't let them near you
