Steal a memory I fell in love with a felon's daughter A girl on a balcony A young runaway From Pittsfield, Georgia Babe, leave that railing be Your wings are frayed And it's a long way down Come breakin' dawn we'll leave On the next bus out of town Just you and me Steal a memory Your brown hair in the wind The seat of our Mercury Under the willow tree I won't be coming home this time Home is too far down the road Love will leave you by the highway side But everybody knows it's worth the ride Steal a memory Me and my sweetheart walk past the tannery Down to the railroad crossing Don't be ashamed to cry Let it downpour it's alright I been afraid to die Now I see I never lived before tonight
