i was a real cassanova in my home town never really thought about settling down
years until you came around its been a few years but i remember it well i was a
rowdy no gooder you were hotter than hell i spent all my time hot on your trail
you could have run to the mountains you could have sailed across the clear blue
sea i knew from the start i couldnt let you get away from me

well your momma and your daddie they didnt approve the told me i was trash and
i was born to lose
but that didnt phase me i was gonna have youso i begged and ive pleaded
something ive never done sure as tommorow has a rising sun there was no mistake
hunnie you were the one

you could have run to the mountains you could have sailed across the clear blue
sea i one things for sure you would never get away from me

sweetest things in life take you by suprise like the heaven i see lookin in
your eyes though you werent sure how an outlaw love would be i made up my mind
not to let you get away from me

as we get a lil closer to our rockin chairs i think back on the good life we
have shared and how our love has grown down through the years so snuggle up to
me baby and turn out the lights there is nowhere i wanna be on this earth but
here to tonite then lyin in your arms holding you tight as time rolls by one
things clear to see i would've been a fool to let you get away from me

you could have run to the mountains you could have sailed across the clear blue
sea but i would've been a fool to let you get away from me
