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 alley way,
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 alley way,
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 alley way,
Fly down the highway.
Before they come to catch me I'll be gone,
Somewhere they can't find me.
