Getaway

Chorus
Getaway getaway getaway now,
I just wanna escape
To a faraway place
because they say that time don’t wait
for no one at all

So lets go
to place that nobody knows
to a place only we can go

Verse 1
Grab a back pack, and the car keys
Time to make tracks, to where the stars be
I know you're sick and tired of that routine
Walking into work feeling down because you can't see

Any hope of things getting better
And it feels like forever you've been keeping it together
For the sake of a dollar and the number on a pay check
Courting all the money you ain't made yet

I wanna

getaway to where the sun stays
Feel the warmth of the summer as we're cruising down the highway
Listening to Weezer through the speakers with the windows down
Can't deny the feeling of this freedom that we finally found.

I look to the left and see my girl smile
And suddenly a thought has come across my mind
Even though I know that it has been a while
I'm finally at peace and I can leave all my troubles behind

Chorus
I want to get away, from all of it now
I just wanna escape
To a faraway place
because they say that time don’t wait
for no one at all

So lets go
to place that nobody knows
to a place only we can go

Verse 2
I got my hands on the steering wheel, feeling in control
Of the path that I wanna take, choosing where to go
Tires to the asphalt, hit the open road
With no destination as we look for the unknown

We can go, anywhere that you want to
Just as long, as I know I am beside you
We don’t even need a map, it don’t matter where we are
We can go and set up camp, underneath all of the stars

By the seashore or the mountain side, we can ride
till the sun sets, on the skyline, we can fly
overseas, up into the clouds, till we can’t see
people on the ground, living life, feeling care free

I don’t really care where we end up
I just want to feel alive until our times up
From the cradle to the grave, in the moments in between
there’s so many things to see, as we’re living out our dreams.

Pre Chorus
getaway to where the sun stays
Feel the warmth of the summer as we're cruising down the highway
We don’t need a map, it don’t matter where we are
We can go and set up camp, underneath all of the stars

Chorus
I want to get away, from all of it now
I just wanna escape
To a faraway place
because they say that time don’t wait
for no one at all

So lets go
to place that nobody knows
to a place only we can go
