lyrics

If you want to hide out
In a cabin by a crystal stream
Run from the law
And live out your wildest dreams

Find me baby we’ll break in
To the MoMA steal a Picasso
Ride away on the wind

If you want to run wild
Through the cosmos and the canyon
Keep me by your side
I got the right amount of reckless abandon

Find a red wagon and a star
Ride it till we burn out
Til we’ve gone too far

And if a second thought should enter your mind
Try to straighten out your path away from mine

Take a little minute to forget
Lose yourself in me
We’ll be better off yet

If you want to lay down
Your arms and give up your fight
Turn your sword into a plow
And stand in the soft sunlight

I’ll be the soil and the seed
Wash your face in the water from the crystal stream
Wash your face in the water from the crystal stream

INEZ is such an incredible Pittsburgh talent! If you've heard our cover of "I Can See Clearly Now" then you already know her voice, but she's also an amazing songwriter and producer as well! Buffalo Rose
