lets run away to toronto
we can take my grandpas old 2002 chevy silverado and take out the back seats. we can put a mattress in the bed of the truck with enough blankets and pillows to line the walls and floor and sleep in parking lots, trailer parks, and if we get lucky, a cliff overlooking a city or lake or river or forest
lets run away to Toronto.
we can leave everything here behind and just go. it’s just you and me now.
i can play guitar as you drive through the mountains, or you can lay down on our 40/20/40 seat with your head on my lap
let’s run away to Toronto, is what i find myself saying all too often.
to a girl who’s just a girl. just a girl that all of my family and friends have heard so much about. just a girl who’s initials have been carved into my skin. just a girl who has taken over my notes app. just a girl that is the center of my spotify. just a girl who never leaves my mind.
you bring me so much joy every time you come close, but i feel like **** when you cross my mind and we’re apart. so i figured if we were never apart i wouldn’t have to feel this way so once again i pitch my idea
lets run away to Toronto
it was an inside joke of sorts. we’d talk about running away to Toronto and living out of my truck.
