We woke in rain, by an old stone-wall
She shook with cold just to light the fire
Someday soon darling, well I swear, I'll come home to you
My inner self knows that I can't be gone for too long
She said "We've been working so hard
I know someday we'll leave here."
"You leave me working so hard
You're past ain't what I see."
I met my love on the run and of all things to say I said I'd take you home
Up in her room in darkness we make plans to run away
And I wonder will she stay waiting and wishing on me
She said "We've been working so hard
I know someday we'll leave here."
"You leave me working so hard
You're past ain't what I see."
Calling my name in the middle of the night
I'm calming you down but you don't know
It's when we find ourselves between the lions and their dens
