Hit And Run
[Breathe Carolina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No red lights, down to ride all night, oh
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't wanna hit and run

Excuse me, can I lift you up and take you there?
I set the mood right when I light it up, light, light it up
Had me from the first hit
Never felt this high before (oh oh oh oh oh)
So why don't we take it back
To my place at last and (oh oh oh oh)
(Don't wanna hit and run)

No red lights, down to ride all night, oh
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't wanna hit and run
The move's just right, make you come alive, oh
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't wanna hit and run
This ain't no drive-by love, don't want no hit and run
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't want no hit and run, run, run...

We're twisted so tight
Caught up in the sweat and skin
Hot in the moonlight when I fire it up, fire, fire it up
I got the green light feignin' for your finish line (oh oh oh oh oh)
So why don't we take it back
To my place at last and (oh oh oh oh)
(Don't wanna hit and run)

No red lights, down to ride all night, oh
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't wanna hit and run
The move's just right, make you come alive, oh
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't wanna hit and run
This ain't no drive-by love, don't want no hit and run
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't want no hit and run
This ain't no drive-by love, don't want no hit and run
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't want no hit and run, run, run...

And I wanna lift you up
I wanna take you there
And I wanna lift you up
I wanna take you there
(Don't wanna hit and run)

No red lights, down to ride all night, oh
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't wanna hit and run
The move's just right, make you come alive, oh
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't wanna hit and run
This ain't no drive-by love, don't want no hit and run
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't want no hit and run




This ain't no drive-by love, don't want no hit and run
Tell me that you're ready 'cause I don't want no hit and run
