I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love As she lies here beside me asleep with the night Her hair in a fine mist floats on my pillow Reflecting the glow of the winter moonlight But I've got to creep down the alley way Fly down the highway Before they come to catch me I'll be gone Somewhere they can't find me. Oh baby you don't know what I've done I've committed a crime I've broken the law While you were here sleeping and just dreaming of me I held up and robbed a liquor store But I've got to creep down the alley way Fly down the highway Before they come to catch me I'll be gone Somewhere they can't find me Oh my life seems unreal my crime an illusion A scene badly written in which I must play And thought it puts me up tight to leave you I know it's not right to leave you When morning is just a few hours away But I've got to creep down the alley way Fly down the highway Before they come to catch me I'll be gone Somewhere they can't find me
