(Verse 1)
Its like waking up in the backseat of a taxi
Thats heading nowhere
Forever stuck in the traffic of a dog eat dog world
And maybe this is what I have to go through
To win the heart of a girl
Who makes my dreams come true
Im a mess and I know that
Shes in the Goldilocks zone
Shes just right
And not to mention her long blonde hair
The way it sways in the wind and
Your blue eyes oh
How they glimmer in the moonlight
(Chorus)
Oh please say youll catch me
When I jump for you
And please say youre with me
When I ask you to
Runaway and start a new life somewhere else
Well take the car and head for the horizon
Well keep on going until were finally
Somewhere far away
From this goddamn place
So lets start a new life somewhere else
(Verse 2)
Im just a boy with big dreams of moving into the city
Though I love it here in the suburbs but Im still
So far away from you
Is it bad that I think about you every day?
And how I know now youll forever be
The girl who takes my breath away
And not to mention your adorable smile
Those lips I cannot wait to taste
So Im giving you my everything
Cause I thought I had you figured out
(Chorus)
Oh please say youll catch me
When I jump for you
And please say youre with me
When I ask you to
Runaway and start a new life somewhere else
Well take the car and head for the horizon
Well keep on going until were finally
Somewhere far away
From this goddamn place
So lets start a new life somewhere else
(Bridge)
Oh girl Ive made a mistake
In Waterloo yesterday
But I cant help myself but feel this way
I shouldnt have said anything
Cause all you did was break my dreams
And now I know
I will never be your Romeo
And after all those things youve said
You will never be my Juliet
Now Im singing
(Ending chorus)
You wont say youll catch me
When I jump for you
You wont say youre with me
When I ask you to
Runaway and start a new life somewhere else
Wont take the car and head for the horizon
We wont keep on going until were finally
Somewhere far away
From this goddamn place
And we wont start a new life somewhere else
Because you didnt want to.
