Drove all night from New York City
In your best friend's car
Knocked on my door, about 5:30
Nursing a broken heart
Still got your keys in your back pocket
Still got your jacket on
Back door's open, baby, I don't lock it
We can leave anytime we want
I got my motor runnin', fingers drummin'
I never planned to stay
Getaway, you know it's now or never
Getaway, nobody lives forever
We're only waiting just to make our getaway
Hey baby, we were good together
Seemed like you'd always be my girl
But looking back, now, we were just too clever
Thinking love would change the world
You know, there's no point in waiting, hesitating
We gotta leave today
Getaway, you know it's now or never
Getaway, nobody lives forever
We're only waiting just to make our getaway
Oooh, getaway now
Yeah, I got my motor runnin', fingers drummin'
I never planned to stay
Getaway, you know it's now or never
Getaway, nobody lives forever
We're only waiting just to make our getaway
Yeah, we say, yeah
Getaway, nobody lives forever
Getaway, you know it's now or never
We're only waiting just to make our getaway
Oooh, ah yeah
We're only waiting just to make our getaway
Oooh yeah
We're only waiting just to make our getaway
Getaway now
Gonna keep on rollin'
Ah yeah
We gotta getaway now
