Hold on, I'll be back for you it won't be long.
    C      Bb  F
The night is something I hear calling me.
    C      Bb  F
Lead me down that lonesome road, point me east and let me go.
    C      Bb  F
My suitcase weighs me down with memories.
 
 
    C    Bb  F
   I just wanna' be the one you run to,
    C    Bb  F
   I want to be the one you come to.
    C    Bb  F
   I wanna' be there beside you when the night comes.
    C    Bb  F
   Put all our cares behind us,
    C    Bb  F
   And go where they'll never find us.
    C    Bb  F
   I want to be there when the night comes.
 
 
    C Bb      F
Two spirits in the night, we can leave before the morning light.
    C Bb  F
When there's nothing left to lose, there's nothing left to feel.
    C      Bb    F
Meet on the edge of town, keep me waiting round and round.
    C      Bb  F
And you and I could just roll on outta' here.

   I want to be the one you come to.
    C    Bb  F
   I wanna' be there beside you when the night comes.
    C    Bb  F
   Put all our cares behind us,
    C    Bb  F
   And go where they'll never find us.

      Am    C
 You know there'll be a time for you and I.
      Am C
 Just take my hand we'll run away.
      Dm   F
 Pick up all the pieces of this shattered dream.
    C
      We're gonna make it all someday.
  G     C
      Cause when we're coming back, we're coming back to stay.
