Stealing Away from Beautiful Blood by The Cousins Project

Stealing Away

I’m stealing away ‘cause the river is high
Gone get me a boat and sail to the sky
Gonna get me a rigger and fly to the sun
Gonna leave all my worries and have me some fun

I’m stealing away under threatening skies
The water is falling right into my eyes
Gonna get me a compass and a barrel of wine
Gonna laugh at the rain and have a good time

I’m stealing away ‘cause the sky’s about to fall
Roving gangs of kids are ready to brawl
Strange things are happening in my neighborhood
Gonna steal away while the stealing is good

I’m stealing away ‘cause the earth’s about to crack
The banks of the river can’t hold the water back
The mud is rising to the tops of my wheels
I’m stealing away with the devil at my heels

Well I’m stealing away to a place in the sun
Gonna rest my head on a pillow of mud
I aint hurtin’ nobody, nobody’s doing me harm
I’m stealing away into my saviors arms
I’m stealing away into my saviors arms

I’m stealing away on the rising tide
Gonna get me some wings and let my spirit fly
Gonna find me a home to rest my weary bones
I’m stealing away, you’re gonna miss me when I’m gone
I’m stealing away, aint nobody doin’ me harm
I’m stealing away into my saviors arms
