Wake up, darling
This may be the day
We’ll climb up out of this hole we dug
And make our getaway
The sun is shining, ain’t no need to delay
Come on, baby, it’s redemption day

So pull your bag
From that old closet shelf
Don’t do it for me, babe
Do it for yourself
Don’t you see what lays behind
Don’t matter today when the sun shines

So jump in the car and we’ll drive right out of here
Don’t look back now, don’t look back now
Don’t look in that rear view mirror

A matter of timing
May never be quite right
If we don’t take this chance right now
It may pass us by
Been saving nickels been saving dimes
As for me, babe, I’m gonna go down tryin’

Chorus

Bridge:
There were days I wished I never had
Still they come, one by one
Those dreams we had seem lost in the wind
Still we run, still we run
Still we run, still we run

What we want
Seems so far away
And all these days
Seem so much the same
Don’t need no rainbows and no pots of gold
But the tank is full, so let’s hit the road

Chorus
