[Verse 1]
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 flow of the winter moonlight
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
Oh my life seems unreal, my crime, an illusion
A scene badly written in which I must play
Though it puts me uptight to leave you, I know it s not right to leave you
When morning is just a few hours away
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
