Getaways Lyrics by Big Talk

Big Talk

2011

So I think it all started with a twitching then an odd man come all alone
What you wanted to believe in we'd grow apart in such an armoured way everyday
Cause what you want is what you get
And what you get ain't happened yet

Hey you say you want out you say you want everything
Take it while you can and now you run away
You say you want out you say you're takin' everything
Take it while you can then go there

I watch you stumble with your petulance
It's almost funny when it comes your way rues the day
Let's see your plan your cute little getaways
Watch you spin off on your Cuban heels how's it feel

Cause what you want is what you get yeah
And what you get ain't happened yet

Hey you say you want out you say you want everything
Take it while you can and now you run away
You said you want out you said you wanted everything
Baby won't you help me please understand
You said you want out you said you wanted everything
Baby why don't you take it from my cold dead hands
You said you want out you said you wanted everything
Baby why don't you take it from my cold dead hands

Hey you say you want out you say you want everything
Take it while you can and now you run away
You said you want out you said you wanted everything
Baby won't you help me please understand
You said you want out you said you wanted everything
Baby why don't you take it from my cold dead hands
You said you want out you said you wanted everything
Baby why don't you take it from my cold dead hands

Last line of second chorus
Baby why don't you take it from my cold dead
