Away
Ashley Mehta Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love drunk on the side of the street
Think I was waiting for you
It was the way that my heart beat
Skipped two
In the midst of you and me
Together baby
Hand on your chest
But I'm moving slowly
Away, away, away from you
Cause I can't find a way to

Come on let's be honest
Do you love me like you said you do, do
You say let's make a promise
But my hearts drifting
Away, away, away
Away from you

Away, away, away
Away, away, away
Away, away, away

Tried hard and I moved too fast
My heart was out your door
To think that you would come after me
My thoughts just weren't enough to be
What they didn't see coming
Crawling back just wasn't an option
For you, for you, for you my love
I thought we'd be enough

Come on let's be honest
Do you love me like you said you do, do
You say let's make a promise
But my hearts drifting
Away, away, away
Away from you

Away, away, away
Away, away, away
Away, away, away

But I won't stop loving you
Friends or romance
At least we took the chance
To love
To love, to love
The way we did
The way we do
But my hearts drifting away
Said my hearts drifting away

Come on let's be honest
Do you love me like you said you do, do
You say let's make a promise
But my hearts drifting
Away, away, away
Away from you

Away, away, away




Away, away, away
Away, away, away
