So I pray now child that you sleep tonight  
When you hear this lullaby

May the wind that blows from haunted graves  
Never bring you misery  
May the angels bright  
Watch you tonight  
And keep you while you sleep

Come on, baby, let’s get out of this town  
I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down  
There’s a chill in my bones, I don’t wanna be left alone  
So, baby, you can sleep while I drive

I’ve been drivin’ all night, my hands wet on the wheel  
There’s a voice in my head that drives my heel  
It’s my baby callin’, sayin’, “I need you here”  
And it’s a half past four and I’m shiftin’ gear

It’s a deathtrap, it’s a suicide rap  
We gotta get out while we’re young  
'Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run

There’s a place for us,  
A time and place for us.  
Hold my hand and we’re half way there.

Somehow,  
Someday,  
Somewhere!

I can’t stand to see you sad  
I can’t bear to hear you cry  
If you can’t tell me what you need  
All I can do is wonder why

Someday, someway aww  
Someday, someway, yeah now  
Someday, someway  
Maybe I’ll understand you

Two old sweethearts who fell apart  
Somewhere a long ago  
How are they to know  
Someday they’d meet again  
And have a need for more than reminiscin’

Maybe this time  
It will be lovin’ they’ll find  
Maybe now they can be more than just friends
