It seems our heartbeats know
Every time we go
Away.
They hold their breath

In hopes of ecstasy,
Everything we need
Today
Till the embrace of death.

I told you I was
Desperate to leave,
And you kissed my face.
We both tried to believe.

But I know someday well row
Down the bayou of our dreams.
Well grow sugar and cotton.
Well both have forgotten
What tribulation means.

And I am not afraid
Because the life Ill make
With you
Is worth the pain Ive felt.

It will all float away,
Every single day,
Into
That look that makes me melt.

Baby please dont wait.
Dont tell me Im naive.
Ive packed up my life
And I am ready to leave.

I pray that someday well stay
In the shanty of our dreams.
Well drink whiskey, get frisky.
Whenever you miss me,
You know just where Ill be.


We won't lie.
We'll just say good-bye
And we'll fly away from here.
'Cause with freedom, who needs 'em?
I'm tired of believing.
I want to make it real.
We're gonna make it real.
Baby, let's make it real.
