Life is before me
What has been is gone
I had aspirations
Now the deed is done
After the darkness
Gonna see the sun
It may be ruthless
But you gotta be someone

Hope, glory, love and
Blameless ambition
How could you claim that
There was no solution
Live and let die there is
Just one condition
If you get caught
That's the end of your mission

Still on the highway
Driving to your place
In a few moments
I shall see your face
I've done this because
You are my only one
I may be worthless
But I gotta have someone

The sky's getting clearer
You won't need that gun
There's no more fear
Your husband's dead and gone
No one will know
Who did the hit-and-run
We may be lawless
But our life's begun
