The Getaway

Here I am again
Talking to myself
Sitting at a red light,
Both hands on the wheel
How am I supposed to feel?
So much running through my mind

First you want to be free,
Now you say you need me,
Giving me signals and signs
It's so hard to let you in
Thinking you might slam the brakes again

Put the pedal down
Heading out of town
Gotta make a getaway, getaway
The traffic in my brain's
Driving me insane
This is more than I can take
You "told" me that you love me first,
Then throw your heart into reverse
I gotta getaway!

I can't keep coming back to you,
Everytime you're in the mood,
To whisper something sweet in my ear
It's so hard to move on,
'Cuz everytime I think you're gone,
You show up in my rearview mirror

Is this just a detour?
'Cuz I gotta be sure
That you really knew what you "said"
It's so hard to let you in,
Thinking you might slam the brakes again!

Put the pedal down
Heading out of town
Gotta make a getaway
The traffic in my brain's
Driving me insane
This is more than I can take
You "told" me that you love me first,
Then throw your heart into reverse
I gotta getaway

To a place where I
Can be redefined!
Where you're out of sight
And you're out of mind
But the truth is,
I can't even say good-bye

Here I am again
Talking to myself
Sitting at a red light
Both hands on the wheel
How am I supposed to feel?
So much running through my mind

Put the pedal down
Heading out of town
Gotta make a getaway(A getaway)
The traffic in my brain's
Driving me insane
This is more than I can take(I can take)
You told me that you love me first,
Then throw your heart into reverse
I gotta getaway
