It was acold and rainy monday when we left,
November shook us with his pitchblack blues
an old and rusty camper was to be our only home
we had absolutely nothing left to loose
 
 
The forecast for the coming week was rough
still bright compared to what we left behind
comes a time when you just feel enough is enough
a time to hit the road and clear your mind
 
 
You and me…
You and me…
all we wanted was to be free
 
 
We tried hard to settle down for many years
a family of our own would have been great
but the papers talked of nothing but destruction rage and fear
so we went to seek a different kind of fate
 
 
You and me…
You and me…
all we wanted was to be free
 
 
Now two years have gone by in sunshine and rain
we didn't know what to expect from the start
we decided to leave a life completely in vain
what we got instead was food for mind and heart
 
 
But some of the people that we meet…
have frightening stories in their eyes
 
No plans made for tomorrow,
we just keep each other warm
and a smile from you is all I need
when we're driving through the tumbleweed
seeking temporary shelter from the storm

You and me…
You and me…
all we wanted was to be free

etc.
