Safely From The City

Safely From The City

Oh my darling, don't believe
everything you've heard from me
or anything seen on T.V.
its just to please you

A memory from another time
I've turned it over in my mind
the punishment will fit the crime
then all bereave

Tired of being older, happens every day
wish someone had told her what I meant to say

Now, I finally found a place
where nothing really changes
but nothing stays the same
Its out, safely from the city
so baby come and get me
oh babe, let's go away!

Now as summer turns to fall
and I can't lie here anymore
you start to tell me what you know
things I concede too

and if this means I may have cracked
that attitude is still an act
a temporary malefactor
what can she do?

Tired of being charged with things I cannot change
would they make it hard if I didn't complain?

Now, I finally found a place
where nothing really changes
but nothing stays the same
Its out, safely from the city
so baby come and get me
oh babe, let's go away!
