Mikael Sundin :

Let's elope today
Or find a secret hideaway
Somewhere's here to stay
Leaves will fall on another day
Another day
There's a place I know
We can go where the cops won’t show
For this land we pray
Leaves will fall on another day

Youth is gone now
I hear you say
But it doesn't matter anyway
I'll cook the dinners
If you bring the wine
Youth has gone
Never rich, still shy

Let's elope today
Or find a secret hideaway
Somewhere's here to stay
Leaves will fall on another day

Youth has gone now
I hear you say
But it doesn't matter anyway
I'll cook the dinners
If you bring the wine
Youth has gone now
Never rich, still shy





Let's elope today
