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 though 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
