The Getaway

This is the getaway i've been looking forward toand it
Wasn't even planned
The only rule is 'nothing can be familiar'
Because it's better if we're lost
Well i could see the city lights staring back at me
Begging me to come back home
Well i could see a fire in the distance
I never thought i'd be a part of it
Where have all my weekends gone?
Summer's taking way too long
Wish every night could be like this
Escaping reality, pure bliss
We're running through the darkness scared out of our
Minds
This uphill road keeps winding and we turn the music
Off
So we can hear the engine
And see if we're going to make it
But it wouldn't be so bad
To be stuck up here tonight
Well i could see the city lights staring back at me
Begging me to come back home
Well i could see a fire in the distance
I never thought i'd be a part of it
Up here on this hillside
Everything seems right
Everything is so peaceful tonight
I could see the city lights staring back at me
Begging me to come back home
I could see a fire in the distance
I never thought i'd be a part of it
I could see
A fire in the distance
Never thought
I'd be a part of it
I could see
A fire in the distance
Never thought
I'd be a part of it
