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 mixed signals and signs It's so hard to let you in Thinking you might slam The brakes again Put the petal 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 tell 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 mean what you say It's so hard to let you in Thinking you might slam The brakes again Put the petal 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 tell 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 goodbye 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 tell me that you love me first Then throw your heart into reverse I gotta getaway
