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 breaks again Put the pedal down, heading outta 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've gotta get away I can't keep coming back to you every time you're in the mood To whisper something sweet in my ear It's so hard to move on, 'cause every time I think you're gone You show up in my rear view mirror Is this just a detour, 'cause I gotta be sure that you really mean what you say It's so hard to let you in, thinking you might slam the breaks again Put the pedal down, heading outta 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've gotta get away 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 outta 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've gotta get away
