Getaway Green

(album: Wake Up, Sunshine - 2020)

Sipping cherry cola
Staring at the poster on the wall
What's the point of going out
When you could just give me a call?
Sitting on your sofa
Reminiscing over 23
You touched yourself, the way I used to
Now that's just a memory

Weekend wonderful
Fade-away youth
Summer symphony
What could I do?

We were getaway green
In a world of black and white
Getaway green
Like the Costa Mesa traffic lights
Keep on, keep on, keep on
Telling me I'm what you need
Like getaway green
Getaway green

I know I'm not supposed to
Color in the lines when it comes to you
Undefined and out of mind
'Til you get lost and lonely, too
I guess I get the message
We don't have to stress this anymore
If it happens, then it happens
Happy to have you at all

Weekend wonderful
Fade-away youth
Summer symphony
What could I do?

We were getaway green
In a world of black and white
Getaway green
Like the Costa Mesa traffic lights
Keep on, keep on, keep on
Telling me I'm what you need
Like getaway green
Getaway green

Do you want to know how the story ends?
Hazy and spun out, just more than friends
Weekend wonderful, a dizzy dream
A colorful lie, we made a hell of a team

We were getaway green
In a world of black and white
Getaway green
Like the Costa Mesa traffic lights
Keep on, keep on, keep on
Telling me I'm what you need
Like getaway green
Getaway green

Getaway green
Getaway (getaway) green
