Well, that first dance in retrospect Just two young lovers was taken as a slight or disrespect They cased them from across the room Their uniforms and unfiltered cigarettes were so in tune While the rest of us would empathize The rest of us could see behind their eyes An escape, it would be wise Miles away (Miles away) A flair goes up (A flair goes up) Hide and wait (Hide and wait) Till it all blows up (It all blows up) Well, at first light they got away By all accounts they left no trace, the dogs found no trace Here, keep this baby safe with the rings One keepsake, a picture of your face Your face Oh, we found ourselves out at the edge Of the fields and rolling hills I used to play Oh, now they're scorched away Miles away (Miles away) A flair goes up (A flair goes up) Hide and wait (Hide and wait) Till it all blows up (It all blows up) We're still in denial (We're still in denial) How's it go if all else fails? So far past denial (So far past the dial) Where do we go if all else fails? Through the bar code made of oak and pine Through the landscape laced with mines They ran, they're still on the run today Miles away (Miles away) A flair goes up (A flair goes up) Hide and wait (Hide and wait) Till it all blows up (It all blows up) We're still in denial (We're still in denial) How's it go if all else fails? So far past denial (So far past the dial) Where do we go if all else fails?
