Young couple, seventeen

So in love, swept off their feet

Parents fought it they did not approve

Said they're too young they're gonna lose.



One day he got on his knee

He said I know we're young, but would you marry me?

One night by the light of the moon

She climbed out of her window.



And they ran away together on a southbound train

Said their vows by the light of day

Time was all they had on their side

And the train rolled on into the night.



She didn't have a wedding gown, she didn't have a ring

But he was all she'd ever need

Into the night they snuck away

And they got married the next day.



They stayed together until they were old & gray

Ever since 1922 when they ran away...
