Getaway
dezza & emme Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hands up, you′re giving me sweet surrender
It's our love, but they wanna call the pressure
It′s no look, just something that I remember
When I'm undone, you're there to give me shelter

So what if the world′s on fire?
We′ll be safe and sound
Watching from somewhere higher
Way above the ground

Nobody can bring us back down
Never coming back, we're here now
So what if the world′s on fire?
We'll bе safe and sound

I′ll follow you through whatever
As long as I'm with you I′m bеtter
And maybe we could run away
Hide out in a getaway

Nobody lives to forever
No one came back, now or never
And maybe we could run away
Hide out in a getaway

So what if the world's on fire?
We'll be safe and sound
Watching from somewhere higher
Way above the ground

Nobody can bring us back down
Never coming back, we′re here now
So what if the world′s on fire?
We'll be safe and sound

I′ll follow you through whatever
As long as I'm with you I′m better
And maybe we could run away
Hide out in a getaway

Hide out in a getaway
Nobody lives to forever
No one came back, now or never
And maybe we could run away

Hide out in a getaway
Hide out in a getaway
I'll follow you through whatever
As long as I′m with you I'm better

And maybe we could run away
Hide out in a getaway
Nobody lives to forever
No one came back, now or never

And maybe we could run away




Hide out in a getaway
Hide out in a getaway

You’re giving me sweet surrender
