Eastside

When I was young, I fell in love
 We used to hold hands, man, that was enough
 Then we grew up, we started to touch
 Used to kiss underneath the light on the back of the bus
 Oh no, your daddy didn't like me much
 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 old 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
 We'll start a new life together in a different place
 We know that love is how all these ideas came to be
 So baby, run away with me
 17 and we got a dream to have a family
 A house, and everything in between
 And then, oh, suddenly, we turned 23
 And now we got pressure for taking our life more seriously
 We got our dead-end jobs and we got bills to pay
 Have our old friends are now our enemies
 And now I, I'm thinking back to when I was young
 Back to the day when I was falling in love
 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 old 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
 We'll start a new life together in a different place
 We know that love is how all these ideas came to be
 So baby, run away with me
 Run away, run away
 Run away, run away now
 Run away, run away
 Run away, run away
 She used to meet me on the Eastside
 She used to meet me on the Eastside
 She used to meet me on the Eastside
