LYRICS
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 wanna 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 pedal down, heading out of town
Gotta make a getaway (getaway, 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 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 brakes again
Put the pedal down, heading out of town
Gotta make a getaway (getaway, 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 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 (mind, mind)
Put the pedal down, heading out of town
Gotta make a getaway (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 get away
(Get away, get away, get away)
(Get away, get away, get away)
(Get away, get away, get away)
