Walking the street
You're in need of someone's sympathy
And someone you meet
Helps to pass the time just perfectly
And she takes you by the hand
Takes you to the promised land
And gives you her love
Drinking alone
Shadowed by your own uncertainty
You'd like to be shown
Everything you've never dared to see
Then she takes you by the hand
Takes you to the promised land
And gives you her love
And then the damage is done
Take your love on the run
You can buy your romance
So you jump at the chance
Hit and run
Hit and run
Hit and run
