lara [es] – getaway car lyrics

[verse 1]
it was the best of times, the worst of crimes
i struck a match and blew your mind
but i didn’t mean it
and you didn’t see it
the ties were black, the lies were white
in shades of gray in candlelight
i wanted to leave him
i needed a reason

[pre+chorus]
“x” marks the spot where we fell apart
he poisoned the well, i was lyin’ to myself
i knew it from the first old fashioned, we were cursed
we never had a shotgun shot in the dark

[chorus]
you were drivin’ the getaway car
we were flyin’, but we’d never get far
don’t pretend it’s such a mystery
think about the place where you first met me
ridin’ in a getaway car
there were sirens in the beat of your heart
should’ve known i’d be the first to leave
think about the place where you first met me
in a getaway car, oh+oh+oh
no, they never get far, oh+oh+ahh
no, nothing good starts in a getaway car

[verse 2]
it was the great escape, the prison break
the light of freedom on my face
but you weren’t thinkin’
and i was just drinkin’
while he was runnin’ after us, i was screamin’, “go, go, go!”
but with three of us, honey, it’s a sideshow
and a circus ain’t a love story
and now we’re both sorry (we’re both sorry)

[pre+chorus]
“x” marks the spot where we fell apart
he poisoned the well, every man for himself
i knew it from the first old fashioned, we were cursed
it hit you like a shotgun shot to the heart

[bridge]
we were jet+set, bonnie and clyde
until i switched to the other side
to the other si+i+i+i+ide
it’s no surprise i turned you in
’cause us traitors never win
i’m in a getaway car
i left you in a motel bar
put the money in a bag and i stole the keys
that was the last time you ever saw me

[chorus]
drivin’ the getaway car
we were flyin’, but we’d never get far
don’t pretend it’s such a mystery
think about the place where you first met me
ridin’ in a getaway car
there were sirens in the beat of your heart
should’ve known i’d be the first to leave
think about the place where you first met me
in a getaway car, oh+oh+oh
no, they never get far, oh+oh+ahh
no, nothing good starts in a getaway car

[outro]
i was ridin’ in a getaway car
i was cryin’ in a getaway car
i was dyin’ in a getaway car
said goodbye in a getaway car
ridin’ in a getaway car
i was cryin’ in a getaway car
i was dyin’ in a getaway car
said goodbye in a getaway car
