Born To Run - Amy MacDonald

In the day we sweat it out

On the streets of a runaway

American dream

At night we ride through the mansions

Of glory in suicide machines

Sprung from cages out on highway 9

Chrome wheeled fuel injected

And steppin' out over the line

H-Oh Baby this town

Rips the bones from your back

It's a death trap

It's a suicide rap

We gotta get out

While we're young

'Cause tramps like us

Baby we were born to run

Wendy let me in

I wanna be your friend

I want to guard your dreams and visions

Just wrap your legs

'Round these velvet rims

And strap your hands 'cross my engines

Together Wendy

We could break this trap

We'll run till we drop

And baby we'll never go back

H-Oh

Will you walk with me out on the wire

'Cause baby

I'm just a scared and lonely rider

But I gotta know how it feels

I want to know if love is wild

Babe I want to know if love is real

Beyond the Palace hemi-powered

Drones scream down the boulevard

Girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors

And the boys try to look so hard

The amusement park rises bold and stark

Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist

I wanna die with you

Wendy on the street tonight

In an everlasting kiss

The highway's jammed with broken heroes

On a last chance power drive

Everybody's out on the run tonight

But there's no place left to hide

Together Wendy we can live with the sadness

I'll love you with all the madness in my soul

H-Oh Someday girl I don't know when

We're gonna get to that place

Where we really want to go

And we'll walk in the sun

But till then tramps like us

Baby we were born to run

Baby we were born to run
