Where have you been?
You’ve been where you felt you should be
Can’t you see?
Were they the ones who made the rules?
Who to see,
what to do.
You’ve gotta watch your step
Where they’ve laid
traps for you
When they’re through
you’ll remember I said
You’ve gotta getaway
Whatcha gonna do?
Now it’s up to you
You’ve gotta getaway
One more time,
in your mind
Testing the road,
I know it’s been a crooked path
Never flowed
to where you’re bound to someday go
And you know this by now.
They’re better days ahead
s’long as you
will allow
and somehow when these words fill your head
You’ve gotta getaway
Whatcha gonna do? (Ooh)
Now it’s up to you
You’ve gotta getaway
One more time,
in your mind
It’s so, it’s so
(Solo)
For so long you were there.
The Bengal rumors fly
Who am I?
Should have guessed
they’d know best
when it comes to your life
You’ve gotta getaway
What are we gonna do? (Ooh)
It’s not just up to you
We’ve gotta getaway
One more time, in our mind
We’ve gotta getaway
We’ve gotta getaway
