When I was young I fell in love

We used to hold hands man

That was enough

Then we grew up started to touch

Used to kiss underneath the light

On the back of the bus

Oh no your daddy

Didn't like me much

And he didn't believe me

When I said you were the one

Oh every day she found a way

Out of the window to sneak out late

She used to meet me

On the Eastside

In the city where the sun don't set

And every day

You know that we ride

Through the backstreets

Of a blue Corvette

Baby you know

I just wanna leave tonight

We can go anywhere we want

Drive down to the coast

Jump in the seat

Just take my hand

And come with me yeah

We can do anything

If we put our minds to it

Take your whole life

Then you put a line through it

My love is yours

If you're willing to take it

Give me your heart

'Cause I ain't gonna break it

So come away starting today

Start a new life

Together in a different place

We know that love is how

These ideas came to be

So baby run away away with me

Seventeen and we got a dream

To have a family

A house and everything in between

And then oh suddenly

We turned twenty-three

Now we got pressure for taking

Our life more seriously

We got our dead-end jobs

And got bills to pay

Have old friends

And know our enemies

Now I I'm thinking back

To when I was young

Back to the day

When I was falling in love

He used to meet me on the Eastside

In the city where the sun don't set

And every day

You know where we ride

Through the backstreets

In a blue Corvette

And baby you know

I just wanna leave tonight

We can go anywhere we want

Drive down to the coast

Jump in the seat

Just take my hand

And come with me

Singing

We can do anything

If we put our minds to it

Take your whole life

Then you put a line through it

My love is yours

If you're willing to take it

Give me your heart

'Cause I ain't gonna break it

So come away starting today

Start a new life

Together in a different place

We know that love is how

These ideas came to be

So baby run away away with me

Run away now

Run away now

Run away now

Run away now

Run away now

Run away now

He used to meet on I

He used to

She used to

He used to

She used to

He used to meet me on the Eastside

Eastside

Eastside

She used to meet me on the Eastside

He used to meet me on the Eastside

Eastside

She used to meet me on the Eastside

In the city where the sun don't set
