You and me we always hit it off well 

Always had that gleam in our eyes the days were ours to sell 

You'd hit me up for a buck but we never had a dime 

So we jumped the subway in town on the Red Line 



I remember 



We were never off our feet kickin' stones down on the street 

We got arrested more than once before we hit the age eighteen 

My folks untied the knot, your old man got a job in New York 

You picked up habbits, I picked up the guitar 



We used to steal a lot 

Then catch a show off the Kenmore stop 

But I felt I robbed the most 

When that poison hit your heart 

Should have never seen you off 

Should have been right there when you nodded off 

But you told me you weren't doing nothing hard 



I remember seeing you two weeks before you died 

I swear to christ you had that gleam still in your eye 

And now I'm runnin' 

But I'm runnin' all alone 

When I'm done runnin' 

I'll burn out and fade away with you
