Lets Get Away Lyrics

I've been searching, trying to say

Let's get away, let's get away

But you're deserting, trying to stay

Trying to stay, trying to stay

It's time to go

Swallow hesitation, dust discretion off your clothes

Trying to find my way back to a place that I don't know

But love, swear I can see it every time we touch

A water dancer calmly sways

Points to a land past Natchez-way

A land where we're not yearning for

These moments so far gone

So, won't you go

I don't want to travel down this road on my own

What's the point of freedom if there's no one to hold

Believe me, tell me is your doubting done so effortlessly, oh my

No need to fantasize this

I know that we can find it, baby

It's driving me crazy, this holding back's insane, insane

I've been searching, trying to say

Let's get away, let's get away

But you're deserting, trying to stay

Trying to stay, trying to stay

Now we're dashing past the floodlights

All this tension and desire

Two broken bodies, breaking wind and breathing fire

Our feet beat on the pavement, our hearts beat overdrive

Just as I think we'll make it, that's when you turn to me

With such a subtle plead, eyes filled with salty beads

And that's when I feel someone, not you or me

That's lurking in the dark, you cry

And I feel a strike, shouts of joy emerge from behind

A hole to my side, you stare

Gun in palm, so pale

Is your conscious weighing on

So why don't you let me see your face

Why don't you let me see your eyes

Deep in my eyes, you stare, your reflection bare

Your fear was my demise

I've been searching, trying to say

Let's get away, let's get away

But you're deserting, trying to stay

Trying to stay, trying to stay
