[Verse 1]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

I got my motor runnin', fingers drummin'

I never planned to stay

[Chorus]

Getaway, you know it's now or never

Getaway, nobody lives forever

We're only waitin' just to make our getaway

[Verse 2]

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 could change the world

[Pre-Chorus]

You know there's no point in waitin', hesitatin'

We gotta leave today...

[Chorus]

Getaway, you know it's now or never

Getaway, nobody lives forever

We're only waitin' just to make our getaway

Oh, getaway now

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]

I got my motor runnin', fingers drummin'

I never planned to stay

[Chorus]

Getaway, you know it's now or never

Getaway, nobody lives forever

We're only waitin' just to make our getaway

Hey, what do you say, hey

Getaway, nobody lives forever

Getaway, you know it's now or never

We're only waitin' just to make our getaway

Huh, oh, yeah

We're only waitin' just to make our getaway

Oh, yeah

We're only waitin' just to make our getaway

[Outro]

Getaway now

Better keep on rollin', oh, yeah

We gotta getaway now
