Outlaw

They held hands and made promises to

Be together for a life or two

But underneath the grass and birds and bees

There was a kind of fear

He held her close and then he held her back

She saw that riding shotgun on his track

Would lead her right unto the devil's door

So she couldn't ask for more

The way her heart's attack

Would lead her right back

To the devil's door

Cuz you keep on running with your arms outstretched

To all those things you wish you could forget

And you can't go back to who you used to be

For what you've done is real

No use crying for what it used to be

And all those times we said It's meant to be

You can't hold back on what your heart is for

So go on out the door

Knew each and every single word he'd say

And prayed to God he'd let it stay that way

But you know Love it don't behave some days

It's gonna get its way

The way her heart's attack

Would lead her right back

To the devil's door

But you keep on running with your arms outstretched

But you can't hold onto things you don't regret

And you can't go back to who you used to be

That would be

Cuz you keep on running with your arms outstretched

To all those things you wish you could forget

But you can't go back to what you can't forget

You're gone and you can't rest easy

You keep on running with your arms outstretched

And all those things you wish you could forget

But you can't go back to who you used to be

That would be too easy
