This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
The Bike was on the street
Outside a midtown bar
He went looking for a drink
Wasn't looking very hard
She was sitting on his seat
When he came out the door
She said "run away with me."
He'd heard the line before
He said "better men than me have been all but left behind."
She said "we're doing pretty good if we can just get out alive."
She wrapped her arms around his waist
Nowhere to run to anyways
They bolted out into the streets
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Into the streets
Too many nights alone
Too many days gone by
With nothing much to show
She was running out of time
He was all she'd ever need
If they could just outrun the past
She said "run away with me."
She tried but couldn't laugh
He said "lesser men than me have put up better fights."
She said "we're doing pretty good if we can just get out alive."
She wrapped her arms around his waist
Nowhere to run to anyways
They bolted out into the streets
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Freedom was all that she owned
She moved faster all on her own
But the freedom had left her, left her drifting like smoke
Left her drifting like smoke
He'd come on off the road
On his shoulder laid her cheek
The bitter taste of smoke
The bike between her knees
The engine running loud
Couldn't hear her if he tried
She spoke into the wind,
"Run away with me tonight."

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Punchline

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Head > Heels

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
Page

Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
I've listened to this song about 15 times in the last couple days. It may just be my favourite Lucero song. It's easily in the top five. I'm talking "Chain Link Fence" territory. I was hoping that the new tunes would be good, and this one is just awesome. It's a theme they've hit on before, but they've never pulled off a "running away" song quite like this. Classic Lucero.
I wonder where did you get this song? I want to listen to this but I can't find it anywhere in the Internet. Would you send me this song if you have it on your computer? My e-mail: agncielinska@gmail.com, I will be very thankful.
yeah, Smoke has that "Chain Like Fence" sound to it I totally agree. Cool, uplifting song from Lucero. My favorite new one so far has to be "Darken My Door", but Im really digging Smoke.
