(Writers Larry Henley, Kenny O'Dell

I don't wanna read the paper this morning
I don't wanna hear no busy city sounds
There's so many things that's so much more important
And they're the only things worth thinkin' 'bout.

Why don't go somewhere and love
It's been a long long time
Why don't we just go somewhere and love
And lock the world outside.

Why don't we just lay down what we're doin'
We don't need a reason or a rhyme
Don't take the time to stop and think about it
If we talk too much we might just change our mind.

So why don't we go somewhere and love
And leave it all behind
Why don't we just go somewhere and love
And stay a long, long time.

Why don't we go somewhere and love
And leave it all behind
Why don't we just go somewhere and love
And stay a long, long time...
