2
he sees her at the same time every night
3
at the mexican discotheque
4
she gives him french kisses
5
he gives her french cigarettes
6
they sit at the same table every time
7
the lights are low
8
but their eyes shine
9
just digging the music from those sweet soul bands
10
she keeps him outta fights
11
holds on to his hand
12
he whispers slowly "tonight's the night"
13
months of planning so it's gotta be right
14
under the table her bag is busting at the seams
15
she made sure to bring everything
16
moonlighting
17
they're leaving everything
18
moonlighting
19
they're losing all their friends
20
moonlighting
21
it's the only way
22
it's frighening
23
but it means they'll stay
24
together
25
they're gonna make it together
26
his blue morris van is parked in an alley
27
just by montague street
28
his friend eddie he did the respray
29
so he couldn't drive it all last week
30
and it cost most of the money that he had saved up
31
to pay eddie's receipt
32
but he figures it's worth it 'cos the disguise is a must
33
when they go missing they're gonna look for the van first
34
she whispers slowly "it'll be alright"
35
I took some cash from my building society
36
and my monthy check came in just right
37
if only they knew they weren't giving it away
38
9:15 monday morning at the printing works
39
the boss notices someone's not clocked in
40
and the water department of the council offices has a message
41
that mrs. park's daughter is missing
42
meanwhile the carlisle turnoff of the m6 motorway
43
drinking cold black coffee eating hot cup cakes
44
she stares at him with his beard unshaved
45
wonders at his powers of staying awake
46
he whispers slowly "you did just fine"
47
they shared the driving all through the night
48
she laughs "my mother will have lost her mind
49
we're only ten miles to gretna
50
they're three hundred behind
