lyrics

I can barely recall how it felt to me that night
When we set out on the road
I remember laughing as we made our escape
I was brave and you were bold
Like some madness was shining down upon us from the sky
We didn’t think too hard, to be honest, you and I
You and I

[chorus]
We ran, ran away on a moonlit night
Didn’t really care what came after
Now somewhere behind us, after all these years
We can still hear the little dog’s laughter

We had some good times, we had some real scares
By and large we were content
We were used pretty hard but we managed to avoid
Being broken or bent
The world was never easy and we often were afraid
We talked about how much we missed our kitchen days, but we stayed
But we stayed

[chorus]

We told ourselves that we would serve no more
We swore we would be free
We looked for a home but we never really found it
There was only you and me
And after all this time has gone by, I just wish
That I could pack it in and go back to being a dish
Just a dish

A dish too cracked to be served from or put on display
A spoon with tarnish gone too deep to be polished away

[chorus]
