Getaway Lyrics by What If Elephants

Getaway - EP

2015

[Verse 1]
Are you not exhausted by the race?
Where we all become stair masters
Moving up and nothing's changed
Pitches on every single flight
Wearing suits with perfect manners
That consume our love and life
[Chorus]
Why don't we just get away?
Forget the world tonight
The beauty in a little space
Can make it all alright
[Verse 2]
Focused on nothing but our names
We begin to lose the markers
That lead back from where we came
Head down and rushing to the light, oh
That another day is brighter
And it's on the other side
[Chorus]
Why don't we just get away?
Forget the world tonight
The beauty in a little space
Can make it all alright
[Post-Chorus]
Hey-ya-how
Hey-ya-how
Hey-ya-how
Hey-ya-how
[Bridge]
I heard her voice, she said
"We don't get out enough
We don't get out enough"
Hey-ya-how
("We don't get out enough")
Hey-ya-how
Hey-ya-how
("We don't get out enough")
We don't get out enough
[Chorus]
Why don't we just get away?
Forget the world tonight
The beauty in a little space
Can make it all alright
Why don't we just get away?
Forget the world tonight
The beauty in a little space
Can make it all alright
