Lyrics
Re mem ber in’ the days
when our (Dm9)love be gan.
(Em9)Think in’ of a mil lion ways
to es (Dm9)cape and be with you.
But re (Em9)al i ty
was n’t just (Dm9)you and I.
It was (Em9)long drawn out days and lone ly nights.
(Em9)Dream in’ ’bout you, I keep (Dm9)dream in’ ’bout you and I’m (Em9)dream in’ ’bout when you would say, “Let me take you, take you, take you to an (Dm9)oth er place
where (Em9)noth in’ ev er seems to mat ter.
It’s just (Dm9)you and me.
(Em9)We can take flight like a (Dm9)thief in the night, stol en (Em9)mo ments with (Dm9)you, ooh.”
But (Em9)des ti ny
did n’t have such a (Dm9)sim ple plan.
(Em9)I was just a girl
and you a young man.
How could (Em9)age de fine
some thin’ (Dm9)so di vine?
Can this (Em9)e ven be real or just ex ist in my mind?
(Em9)Dream in’ ’bout you, I keep (Dm9)dream in’ ’bout you and I’m (Em9)dream in’ and wait in’ for the day
when no one and noth ing else takes (Bm7)up our time.
(Em9)Fi nal ly you’re on ly (Am9)mine
each and ev ’ry day and I (Bm7)walk with you.
(Em9)right by my (Am9)side.
But in stead we have to hide, sneak a (Bm7)round and lie
just to (Em9)spend time a (Am9)lone.
If (Bm7)lov ing you’s a crime I’d (Cmaj7)rath er do the time and (B7)leave the world be (B)hind.
“Let me take you, take you, take you to an (Dm9)oth er place
where (Em9)noth in’ ev er seems to mat ter.
It’s just (Dm9)you and me.
(Em9)We can take flight like a (Dm9)thief in the night, stol en (Em9)mo ments with (Dm9)you, ooh.”
(Em9)Let’s get a way.
Let’s get a way,
oh.
(Em9)We can get a way.
We can get a way,

(Em9)Let’s get a way.
Let’s get a way,
oh.
(Em9)We can get a way.
We can get a way,
oh.
