Sweet Escape
Alesso/Sirena Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We drive so far, to get away
Never look back, we don't care about nothin' else
A sweet escape
Gotta break free, like a shooting star
Let the skyline guide us
We don't care about nothin' else
A sweet escape
Feels like heaven, nothing can stop us now
We run away, a sweet escape
Nothing can hold us down
Just like a wave that never breaks
Nothing can stop us now
And if you fall, I'll pick you up
I'll follow you 'til the end of time
We run away, a sweet escape
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can stop us now

All lights go out and fade away
Never lose faith, leave all of your fears behind
A sweet escape
Gotta break free, with an open heart
Let the sunshine find us
We don't care about nothin' else
A sweet escape
Feels like heaven, nothing can stop us now
We run away, a sweet escape
Nothing can hold us down
Just like a wave that never breaks
Nothing can stop us now
And if you fall, I'll pick you up
I'll follow you 'til the end of time
We run away, a sweet escape
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can stop us now

And if you fall, I'll pick you up
I'll follow you 'til the end of time




We run away, a sweet escape
Nothing can stop us now

Me salvaste, hace 7 años, necesitaba estar feliz. Y pasaba por una depresión horrible. Está música me hacía la tarde y me daba fuerzas para no decaer. Gracias Alesso. Te sigo desde los memorables 2015
