She was magical to me even way back then
They said the way I felt about her was a sin
But that wasn't the only thing that kept us apart
We had it all working against us from the start
The parents, the church, the social setting
all had their say about what who was getting
they just wanted to control everything, have their say
They didn't really give a dam about us anyway
So we saw our chance, we made our break
we had nothing to loose we had nothing to take
We left that sanctimonious religious prison behind
We never looked back, never missed that design
Anyplace on the road we could have lived better
but we went for the city she led and I let her
With only ourselves to care for each other
We never became a father and mother
we each knew the other of us better than ourselves
we lived out our lives in love and respect to our depths
when our journey ended, so did the purpose of our existence
How I thought love was in the great depression years
