The Outfield Lyrics

Come on, get up and go
Another true story, another true story

Running through airports, waiting at stations
Hoping you'd be there, wanting to tell you my name
Hoping you'd see me, stuck in the outfield
Hoping you'd notice and you'd know who I am now

All of my issues were dragging me down
I always wanted to be someone else
And then we both said

We were the young and hopeless
We were the broken youth
You're not the only one they used
I was in the outfield too
Somehow we found redemption
We found a love that's true
My life was leading me to you
I was in the outfield too

I was thinking about school, it was so fucking painful
My parents were both such a wreck
I needed to lean on a friend
And you were stuck out there, somewhere in California
And I was daydreaming about falling asleep next to

You helped me face all the darkness in me (You redeem me)
You shine your line in the space in between
Now we both say

We were the young and hopeless
We were the broken youth
You're not the only one they used
I was in the outfield too
Somehow we found redemption
We found a love that's true
My life was leading me to you
I was in the outfield too

What you say? What you say?
We could leave, just forget it all and live forever
Run away, run away
We can go, we can drive to somewhere new
If you say, if you say, we should stay
I don't mind as long as we're together
So what you say? What you say?
Will you stay? Come on, tell me that we'll live forever
Tell me that we'll live forever

We were the young and hopeless
We were the broken youth
You're not the only one they used
I was in the outfield

We were the young and hopeless
We were the broken youth
You're not the only one they used
I was in the outfield too
Somehow we found redemption
We found a love that's true
My life was leading me to you
I was in the outfield too

Run away, run away, run away
Come on, tell me that we'll live forever (We found redemption)
Run away, run away, run away
Come on, tell me that we'll live forever (We found redemption)
Run away, run away, run away, run away, run away, run away
(We found redemption)
Run away, run away, run away, run away, run away, run away
(We found redemption)
