FUGITIVE FROM LOVE

Thought that I was smart enough

To know about life’s peril

That is ‘til I got hit by Cupid’s poisoned arrow

Now I see so easily

You can’t do the straight and narrow

‘Cause you’re just a fugitive from love

Now I’m the one imprisoned

By locked up memory

Looks like it might be a while

Before I find the key

I think I’ve lost the ball and chain

Until I dream of you again

‘Cause you’re still a fugitive from love

I feel like a stolen car

That wasn’t taken very far

I’m gettin’ the sensation

Of a moving violation

You’ve broken and entered

And now my heart is splintered

And you’re like a fugitive from love

Even if a judge finds no criminal intent

A jury’s gonna have to know

That you’ve been negligent

I don’t mean to be accusative

But baby you’re a fugitive

Uh-huh, you’re a fugitive from love

You’re love was so minimal

That some would find it criminal

You should spend a half a century

In a darkened penitentiary

I wish that I could just forget

But you are such a fine regret

And you’re still a fugitive from love

There’s a lot of evidence

To prove your malevolence

A full moon in the nighttime

Casts too much light to hide your crime

Guess that I’m a fool to say

I hope to track you down some day

‘Cause baby, you’re fugitive from love
