[Verse 1] You left your red scarf on the station chair I found it folded by the ticket machine You said, “Don’t wait up, darling, I’ll be there” Then took the last train out of town with me [Chorus] We love as we please, we go where we choose No vows in a book, no keys to the room Your hand in my hand, the whole world can wait We’re free as the road and the wind at the gate [Verse 2] We shared one coat in the market rain Two pears and a paper map of the coast You laughed when the ferry pulled us away And said, “If we’re lost, then we’re lost the most” [Chorus] We love as we please, we go where we choose No vows in a book, no keys to the room Your hand in my hand, the whole world can wait We’re free as the road and the wind at the gate [Bridge] If morning comes, let it find us awake With salt on our sleeves and the sea in our hair No promise to keep, no debt to repay Just you by my side, and the miles we can take [Chorus] We love as we please, we go where we choose No vows in a book, no keys to the room Your hand in my hand, the whole world can wait We’re free as the road and the wind at the gate [Outro] Your red scarf flying, the train rolling on We love as we please, and we’re not going home
