Earth, Wind & Fire - Getaway Lyrics

Get away
Let's leave today
Let's get away

So you say you've tried, but just can't find the pleasure
People around you are giving you pressure
Try to resist, all the hurt that's all around you
If you taste it, it will haunt you

So come, take me by the hand, we'll leave this troubled land
I know we can, I know we can, I know we can, I know we can
Get away (yeah)
Let's leave today
Let's get away (what ya, what ya, what ya, what ya know?)

What ya, what ya, what ya, what ya know?
Watch for the signs, they lead in the right direction
Not to heed them is a bad reflection
They'll show you the way to what you have been seeking
To ignore them, you're only cheating

So come, take me by the hand, we'll leave this troubled land (you betta come)
Why don't you get away? Get away (oh yeah)

Lay awake at night till the sun comes up in the morning
Never excited, it all seemed boring
Make up your mind which way to go about it
Choose your road, just don't doubt it

So come, take me by the hand, we'll leave this troubled land (you betta come)
I know we can, I know we can, I know we can, I know we can

Get away (would ya, would ya, would ya, would ya)
Let's leave today (would ya, would ya, would ya, would ya go?)
Let's get away (would ya, would ya, would ya, would ya)
Let's leave today
Let's get away

Let's get away
Let's leave today
Let's get away

Get away, leave today
Get away, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

Get away, leave today
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, ooh
