Hideaway lyrics

Let them come a-running

And take all your money and hide away

Let them come a-running

And take all your money and flee

Let them come a-running

And take all your money and hide away, hide away, hide away

It was summer or maybe spring, oh I can't remember

It was summer or maybe spring, oh I can't recall

We found our hearts and stole them from our bodies

We couldn't understand the villain's call

We'd often recall the beginnings

We'd often try in vain to change it all

We couldn't help but keep ourselves from sinning

It was summer, summer or maybe spring

Or maybe spring, or maybe spring

Let them come a-running

And take all your money and hide away

Let them come a-running

And take all your money and flee

Let them come a-running

And take all your money and hide away, hide away, hide away

It was summer or maybe spring, I can't remember

It was summer or maybe spring, I can't recall

We'd try to always calm our elders

But always we did seem to fall

We'd never try to tame the burning embers

It didn't seem to matter how we'd fare

It seemed we couldn't ever escape December

It was summer, summer or maybe spring

Or maybe spring, or maybe spring, ooh

Oh it was summer, summer or maybe spring

Or maybe spring, or maybe spring

Let them come a-running

And take all your money and hide away

Let them come a-running

And take all your money and flee

Let them come a-running

And take all your money and hide away

Hide away, hide away, hide away, hide away
