Newspaper

I was only twelve years old

When I saw you in the newspaper

You were in the police blogger

from stealing things you could afford

I was just a lonely girl

Wanting to be someone special

Someone neighbors talked about

When they were drunk and bored

Run away, run away, run away

We could be together

Run away, run away, run away with me

Na Na Na Na

Maybe when we're seventeen,

We could build ourselves a castle

Somewhere by the Caspian Sea

No parents will be allowed

You could write me poetry

And I could paint you watercolors

We could stage our one-act plays

And roll gracelessly

Run away, run away, run away

We could be together

Run away, run away, run away

With me

Na Na Na Na

Here we are in our reunion

Why's there so much air conditioning

We small talk in cropped circles

We both feel like any other

You tell me that I look great

It's great that I pursued my passion

You epitomized that passion

Twenty years ago

Run away, run away, run away

We could be together

Run away, run away, run away

We could be

Run away, run away, run away

With me

Na Na Na Na

I was only twelve years old

When I saw you in the newspaper
