No, nothing good starts in a getaway carHe was the best of times, the worst of crimesI struck a match and blew your mindBut I didn't mean itAnd you didn’t see itThe ties were black, the lies were whiteAnd shades of grey in candlelightI wanted to leave himI needed a reasonX marks the spot, where we fell apartHe poisoned the well, I was lyin' to myselfI knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursedWe never had a shotgun shot in the darkYou were drivin' the getaway carWe were flyin’, but we'd never get farDon't pretend it's such a mysteryThink about the place where you first met meWe're ridin' in a getaway carThere were sirens in the beat of your heartShould've known I'd be the first to leaveThink about the place where you first met meIn a getaway car, oh-ohNo, they never get far, oh-ahhNo, nothing good starts in a getaway carIt was the great escape, the prison breakThe light of freedom on my faceBut you weren’t thinkin’And I was just drinkin'While he was runnin’ after us, I was screamin', "go, go, go!"But with three of us, honey, it's a side showAnd a circus ain't a love storyAnd now we’re both sorry (we're both sorry)X marks the spot, where we fell apartHe poisoned the well, every man for himselfI knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursedIt hit you like a shotgun shot to the heartYou were drivin' the getaway carWe were flyin’, but we'd never get farDon't pretend it's such a mysteryThink about the place where you first met meWe're ridin' in a getaway carThere were sirens in the beat of your heartShould've known I'd be the first to leaveThink about the place where you first met meIn a getaway car, oh-ohNo, they never get far, oh-ahhNo, nothing good starts in a getaway carWe were jet-set, Bonnie and ClydeUntil I switched to the other sideTo the other si-i-i-i-ideIt's no surprise I turned you in'Cause us traitors never winI'm in a getaway carI left you in a motel barPut the money in a bag and I stole the keysThat was the last time you ever saw meDrivin' the getaway carWe were flyin’, but we'd never get farDon't pretend it's such a mysteryThink about the place where you first met meWe're ridin' in a getaway carThere were sirens in the beat of your heartShould've known I'd be the first to leaveThink about the place where you first met meIn a getaway car, oh-ohNo, they never get far, oh-ahhNo, nothing good starts in a getaway carI was ridin' in a getaway carI was cryin' in a getaway carI was dyin' in a getaway carSaid goodbye in a getaway carRidin' in a getaway carI was cryin' in a getaway carI was dyin' in a getaway carSaid goodbye in a getaway car
