Getaway Lyrics

Look into my eyes and tell me now
How you feel the time is running out
And how you want to run me into the sun
That is what life is all about
I can fantasize of one more night
Realize that every moment's right
Put our hands upon anything you want
There is only common sense to fight
I am dying to go to everywhere with you
Baby say the word and we can just be gone
What are we waiting for?
One second more is one second too long
We can disappear right into yesterday
Vanish in the air, baby I don't care
Long as we make our getaway
Fingers running up and down my back
Setting me on fire just like that
I've seen it in my mind a hundred thousand times
And now here we are at last
I want to touch you like I've never touched you
I want to love you like you've never been loved before
And give you so much more
Can't think of nothing else but you all to myself
Say the word and we can just be gone
What are we waiting for?
One second more is one second too long
We can disappear right into yesterday
Vanish in the air, baby I don't care
Long as we make our getaway
Just say the word and we can just be gone
What are we waiting for?
One second more is one second too long
We can disappear right into yesterday
Vanish in the air, baby I don't care
Long as we make our getaway

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
