Favorite Quote:
Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


Crept into your backyard throwing pebbles at your window,
Opened up and looked at me tiredly as I mouthed "Let's go."
Rushed to stuff your suitcase with everything you'd need,
Because we're not returning once we leave.
Borrowed your dad's credit card in case we had an emergency,
I got the car ready because I took my mom's key.
Down the stairs and out the front door you tiptoe,
Free at last, your parents will never know.
We've gotta get out of town,
Before the police force hunt us down.
Can't let them escort us back,
Because we'd lose each other and that would be that.
Let's head for Spain, you enjoy to dance,
Or we can fly to Paris, I know how you love romance.
Count the money, buy the tickets,
Pick a country and stick with it.
We can't come back once we're gone,
Let no one know what's going on.
Kickback with me and let's enjoy the rest of our days,
From here on out we're runaways.
We're stowaways on this airplane,
On our way to California, maybe we'll strike fame?
I wonder if anyone is looking for us yet?
By the time they realize we are gone the sun will had already set.
We can make a name for ourselves, we have plenty of cash,
Live like a king and queen and have a bash.
Be careful as you get off as we could be on the news,
Throw away partial belongings so we don't leave behind any clues.
We've gotta get out of town,
Before the police force hunt us down.
Can't let them escort us back,
Because we'd lose each other and that would be that.
Let's head for Spain, you enjoy to dance,
Or we can fly to Paris, I know how you love romance.
Count the money, buy the tickets,
Pick a country and stick with it.
We can't come back once we're gone,
Let no one know what's going on.
Kickback with me and let's enjoy the rest of our days,
From here on out we're runaways.
Baby, we're free now.
Come on and scream out.
We can start our life without worry,
I'm with you and you're with me.
It's all us from now on...
We've gotta get out of town,
Before the police force hunt us down.
Can't let them escort us back,
Because we'd lose each other and that would be that.
Let's head for Spain, you enjoy to dance,
Or we can fly to Paris, I know how you love romance.
Count the money, buy the tickets,
Pick a country and stick with it.
We can't come back once we're gone,
Let no one know what's going on.
Kickback with me and let's enjoy the rest of our days,
From here on out we're runaways.
