lyrics
Do you want me to run?
Do you want me to fly away?
Leave the deal never done
And come back another day.
Take a step back,
don't give yourself a heart attack;
Walk a straighter line
everything will be fine.
You can live to see another day,
Everything is gonna be okay,
Do what you choose
Now you're on your way.
Do you want me to lie
so you can break down and cry?
Do you want me to steal?
Will you be my alibi?
Do you want me to fly away?
Leave the deal never done
And come back another day.
Take a step back,
don't give yourself a heart attack;
Walk a straighter line
everything will be fine.
You can live to see another day,
Everything is gonna be okay,
Do what you choose
Now you're on your way.
Do you want me to lie
so you can break down and cry?
Do you want me to steal?
Will you be my alibi?

Together, Kenna and Cox have played at festivals around Europe, including in the Netherlands and Ireland, and supported Alabama 3 at Tripod in Dublin. ... more
