Eastside sing and play along

When I was young, I fell in love.

We used to hold hands, man,

that was enough.

Then we grew up, started to touch,

used to kiss underneath the light on the back of the bus.

Oh, no, your daddy didn't like me much,

and he didn't believe me when I said you were the one.

Oh, ev'ry day, she found a way out of the window to sneak out late.

She used to meet me on the Eastside,

in the city where the sun don't set.

And ev'ry day you know that we'd ride through the back streets in a blue Corvette.

Baby, you know I just wanna leave tonight,

we can go anywhere we want.

Start a new life together in a different place.

We know that love is how all these ideas came to be.

Seventeen, and we got a dream to have a family,

a house and ev'rything in between.

And then, oh, suddenly we turned twentythree and now we got pressure for taking our life more seriously.

We got our deadend jobs and got bills to pay.

Our old friends are now our enemies.

And now I, I'm thinking back,

to when I was young, back to the day when I was falling in love.

He used to meet me on the

Run away now, run away now,

run away now.

Run away now, run away now,

run away now.

He used to meet me on the Eastside.

She used to meet me on the Eastside.

He used to meet me on the Eastside.

She used to meet me on the Eastside,

in the city where the sun don't set.
