Thick as Thieves
Love On the Run: Defying the Odds
Lyrics
We could like highway robbers, thick as thieves.
We share a strong bond, like highway robbers working closely together.
Let the lawman throw us in a jail cell for weeks.
We are willing to face consequences, even imprisonment, for our relationship.
But the boys in blue couldn't break up me and you.
The authorities can't separate us, emphasizing the strength of the connection.
Your daddy used to work for the FBI,
Your father had a job with the FBI, adding a rebellious or forbidden aspect to the relationship.
Put my face on a wanted poster "dead or alive".
I'm wanted, creating an element of danger and excitement in our lives.
So we ditched our cars and put on our running shoes.
We escape from our ordinary lives, symbolized by leaving our cars and running.
No they don't, no they don't
Despite external disapproval, we envision a lasting and eternal love between us.
Want us to be together.
-No they don't know they don't
-Not at all.
-We could live, we could live, we could live like this forever
-You and I, you and I, on and on.
-Always and forever, forever, forever
-Always and forever, forever, forever.
-Jumped on a train destination anywhere.
We embark on a journey, emphasizing the willingness to be together regardless of circumstances.
Yeah as long as I'm with you, girl I don't care.
-I'll grow a mustache, you'll cut off your hair
-No they don't, no they don't
Reiteration of the commitment to stay together against external wishes.
Want us to be together.
-No they don't know they don't
-Not at all.
-We could live, we could live, we could live like this forever
-You and I, you and I, on and on.
-Always and forever, forever, forever
-Always and forever, forever, forever.
-Because I hear the sirens are calling
References to challenges, symbolized by sirens and pistols, but a determination to overcome them.
Pistols drawing on the ground.
-There maybe a mountain in between us,
-There ain't nobody gonna take us down.
-No they don't, no they don't
Reaffirmation of the commitment to be together despite obstacles.
Want us to be together
-No they don't know they don't
-Not at all
-We could live, we could live, we could live like this forever
-You and I, you and I, on and on,
-Always and forever, forever, forever
-Always and forever, forever, forever.
-No they don't, no they don't
Final assurance that external factors won't deter their enduring love.
Want us to be together
-No they don't know they don't
-Not at all
-We could live, we could live, we could live like this forever
-You and I, you and I, on and on,
-Always and forever, forever, forever
-Always and forever, forever, forever.
