Partner in Crime Lyrics

It was a dream that we'd always both had

To pack a bag, get in the car

And say bye to Mums and Dad

Only known each other a year

But it didn't matter to us

If we'd only had the money

We would've been gone for months

February, two-zero-one-eight, inside my ten-year-old Focus

We focused on the other states

First to Wagga, then Coonabarabran

I never thought I'd get that into a lyric

But here I am

Through Goondiwindi then onto the coast

It was a dream come true

We raised our plastic cups in a toast

My partner in crime, wherever the wind blows

You will be mine, and I will be your

(Your) getaway ride

So let's, drive on, drive on

We found the beach, found some peace

Found some valleys, we felt some peaks

And then the days became weeks

The sand was warm, and the love was sweet

Read books, drank wine

Lived rough, lived fine

Hervey Bay was the north-most stay

And what a place to enjoy the most sunset days, okay

South now on our way back home

Still lots of people to meet and lots of roads to roam

Truth be told we mostly kept to ourselves

All alone, just enjoying the view outside of our windows

My partner in crime, wherever the wind blows

You will be mine, and I will be your

(Your) getaway ride

So let's, drive on, drive on

Last stop that we really wanted to knock off

Kosciuszko, just get to the top

Food packed and a slip-slop-slap

We hit the track hard

And we never thought about looking back

We had our arguments, and our silent shouts

It's funny but I cannot remember what we were fighting about

At the top, everything was alright though

It was a sight to behold

We made it, all across this land

Over 5000 Ks, always holding your hand

And I know you're scared of heights

But just look into my eyes

We'll conquer every mountain if it takes all night

My partner in crime, wherever the wind blows

You will be mine, and I will be your

(Your) getaway ride

So let's, drive on, drive on
