This song is a parable about having the strength to leave what we know behind and to build a new world beyond yesterday.
"Let's go my love, while we have the fire
Don't let them trap us and make us tired
I don't want to be here any longer
Let's get away While We're Stronger"
lyrics
Come with me, This very night , you who I adore
for this old town is tired and dying, and we must live for more
my precious heart, my truest friend in your eyes I see the future
possibilities where we survive, beyond the revolutions
Bring only what one arm can carry, meet me at the bridge before the road
don't tell your preacher, Don't tell your father
for they would never let you go
for you are far to beautiful, and we are young and brave
we must leave before day's light, from this place we cannot save
You and I are much too fly, to sit around here waiting to die
together we hold the power, it's 11 past the 11th hour
Let's go my love, while we have the fire
Don't let them trap us and make us tired
I don't want to be here any longer
Let's get away While We're Stronger
Let's get away While We're Stronger
If we've got to die someday, then let us die in freedom
strong enough to get away and see what we could become
You and I are much too fly, to sit around here waiting to die
together we hold the power, it's 11 past the 11th hour
Let's go my love, while we have the fire
Don't let them trap us and make us tired
I don't want to be here any longer
Let's get away While We're Stronger
Let's get away While We're Stronger
Bring your compass, bring your knife, bring the will to build a life
come with me under a starlit dome
leave all your gold at home
let's go for something we've never known
do you have the power in your stones
come with me into the wild
bring your love
bring your child
