"Got To Get Away" lyrics

There's nothing left to gain
But no one's leaving
We can sit here and complain
And end up freezing
Now the light has blown again
While we watch the television
I can't forget your name
A-I-M-I-E

We know it's time to play
And remember we can go
Before the sun turns grey
And we search in the ground for it

Got to get away
Got to get away
To a place where the weekend's still alive
I'm afraid if you're not awake
We're gonna leave here now
You might not make it through

Now I'm caught out in the dark
Lost and wounded
Throwing confetti in the park
A laughing humour
And the fights just start again
So we watch the television
I cannot forget the way
You turned your back on me

We know it's time to play
And remember we can go
Before the sun turns grey
We search in the ground for it

Got to get away
Got to get away
To a place where the weekend's still alive
I'm afraid if you're not awake
We're gonna leave here now
You might not make it through

Got to get away
Got to get away
To a place where the weekend's still alive
I'm afraid if you're not awake
We're gonna leave you now
You might not make it

Now it's time for me to say
What we're all thinking
I wish you'd stay the same
And we could go out drinking
And the lights have blown again
Though we still watch television
I cannot forget the name
I cannot forget you

Got to get away
Got to get away
To a place where the weekend's still alive
I'm afraid if you're not awake
We're gonna leave here now
You might not make it through

Got to get away
Got to get away
To a place where the weekend's still alive
I'm afraid if you're not awake
We're gonna leave here now
You might not make it through
