Here I am again
Talking to myself
Sitting at a red light
Both hands on the wheel
How am I supposed to feel?
So much running through my mind

First you want to be free,
Now you say you need me,
Giving mixed signals and signs
It's so hard to let you in
Thinking you might slam the brakes again!

Put the pedal down!
Heading out of town!
Gotta make a getaway
The traffic in my brain's,
Driving me insane!
This is more than I can take!
You tell me that you love me first,
Then throw your heart into reverse!
I gotta getaway!

I can't keep coming back to you,
Everytime you're in the mood,
To whisper something sweet in my ear
It's so hard to move on,
'Cuz everytime I think you're gone,
You show up in my rearview mirror

Is this just a detour,
'Cuz I gotta be sure
That you really mean what you say
It's so hard to let you in,
Thinking you might slam the brakes again!

Put the pedal down!
Heading out of town!
Gotta make a getaway!
The traffic in my brain's
Driving me insane!
This is more than I can take!
You tell me that you love me first,
Then throw your heart into reverse!
I gotta getaway!

To a place where I
Can be redefined!
Where you're out of sight!
And you're out of mind!
But the truth is,
I can't even say good-bye!

Here I am again
Talking to myself
Sitting at a red light
Both hands on the wheel
How am I supposed to feel?
So much running through my mind

Put the pedal down!
Heading out of town!
Gotta make a getaway!(A getaway...)
The traffic in my brain's
Driving me insane!
This is more than I can take!(I can take...)
You tell me that you love me first,
Then throw your heart into reverse!
I gotta getaway!
