[Simon, Garfunkel - Somewhere They Can't Find Me lyrics]

I can hear the soft breathing of
The girl that I love
As she lies here beside me
Asleep with the night
Her hair in a fine mist floats on my pillow
Reflecting the glow of the winter moonlight

But I’ve got to creep down the alleyway
Fly down the highway
Before they come to catch me I’ll be gone
Somewhere they can’t find me

Oh, baby, you don’t know what I’ve done
I’ve committed a crime, I’ve broken the law
While you were here sleeping and
Just dreaming of me
I held up and robbed a liquor store
But I’ve got to creep down the alleyway
Fly down the highway
Before they come to catch me I’ll be gone
Somewhere they can’t find me

Oh, my life seems unreal
My crime an illusion
A scene badly written in which I must play
And though it puts me up tight to leave you
I know it’s not right to leave you
When morning is just a few hours away

But I’ve got to creep down the alleyway
Fly down the highway
Before they come to catch me I’ll be gone
Somewhere they can’t find me
