by Meg Blessing
You have your job and I have mine
We both come home with a frown
Too much to do and not enough time
Work and duty weigh us down
Being without each other is a crime
We need to get out of town
(chorus)
Let’s run away to France for awhile
We’ll bask on a warm beach in Nice
and forget that thick stack of files
and love each other once twice thrice
It’s silly to pine for each other
when we’re so close together
Can’t let a little thing like life
keep us apart forever
We have to put our lives on hold
so we can find our life together
(chorus)
(middle)
You can charm the girls with your perfect French
and I can flirt with the men
and won’t they be jealous when they find out
we’re much more than friends
(chorus)
