"Getaway Car" lyrics

"Getaway Car"

West river county road
First taste of sweetness
Took all my self-control
Took all my weakness
Always said you'd make it out
If you could score a ticket
But in the steel heart of a rusted town
It's easy to forget it

Babe, I never made it that far
I'm still waiting on a getaway car
I can't change the way you're pulling me apart
Like suicide doors on the hood of your car
Always be yours in the back of my heart

Smoke stacks and power lines
Watercolor summer
Niagara misty eyes
You always had my number
I still got yours memorized
But I'll never call it
Long gone but somehow I'm
Still up there falling

Babe, I never made it that far
I'm just waiting on a getaway car
I can't change the way you're pulling me apart
Like suicide doors on the hood of your car
Always be yours in the back of my heart

Yeah

I can't make it out
I can't make it out
I can't make it out
I can't make it out

I can't make it out
No I can't make it out
I can't make it out
No I can't make it out
