From Out of the Blue (The Conclusion) Part 3
Leaving the room, we had stolen a car for speed
One, to not ever be traced.
We hit the highway after an hour of driving
And felt we had won a race.
Releasing a gasp, she looked at me and she spoke
Saying, once, she had loved that man.
Now, in the light of the true way he feels and threat he made
She is happy, with me, that she ran.
We stopped at a store for a video camera and tape
Then stopped at a remote location
I taped her entire story, the facts and the dates
Her husband’s taking a long vacation.
With the tape in our hands, we drove to a city
Stopping at the first TV station
We dropped off the tape and left there real soon
Leaving his fate to the entire nation.
With his fate now sealed and our destiny now set
We drove to get the nearest plane
Two tickets to paradise are what we bought next
Around here, you will never see us again.
We found each other again for the strangest of reason
But, we both are thankful for the fate.
We will never misuse, or mistrust, or deceive one another
For our love will never again wait.
