Thieves

Four dead strings on a six string guitar

Playing Jimmy Buffet covers in an Ohio bar

Yeah, I met her slinging drinks, filling up her tip jar

I felt like Clyde with Bonnie in my car

We were two dollar lighters, blowing smoke in the sky

You don't think about tomorrow when you feel that alive

We burn bright, got away scott free

Highjack the night, doing time, you and me

Hold a little misdemeanors, where I wish I could be

We stole that summer like runaway thieves

And we loved, and we laughed and it came on strong

And went by too fast (hey!)

We be just getting started, come closing time

Sweep the floor, lock the door, leave the world behind

Two villains on the run, out searching for a thrill

With nothing to lose, and nothing but time to kill

We burn bright, got away scott free

Highjack the night, doing time, you and me

Hold a little misdemeanors, where I wish I could be

We stole that summer like runaway thieves

Yeah, we stole that summer like runaway thieves

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, yeah

Oh, oh, oh

Uh, uh, uh, oh

Well the last I heard, she was livin' on the coast

That summer with her was the one I love the most

And we loved, and we laughed, and it came on strong

And went by too fast (yeah)

We burn bright, got away scott free

Highjack the night, doing time, you and me

Hold a little misdemeanors, where I wish I could be

We stole that summer like runaway thieves

We stole that summer like runaway thieves

We stole that summer like runaway thieves

We stole that summer, like runaway thieves

Oh, oh, oh

And we loved, and we laughed, and it came on strong

And went by too fast
