Lyrics

She takes
Me far
Away
From here
She takes
Me far
Away
From here

One o'clock in the club and I'm 'bout to go
And I ain't down for a girl who's out for gold
She needs to be right here when it's tough at home
And from the looks of this my luck is gone
Sometimes I can't figure what's good for me
What it looks to me, that I'm hopeless
Why should I bother when every girl
That I talk to thinks I'm a holla
(Then I Saw Her) she's pretty bad
She smiles so bright when I make her laugh
She says she likes my favorite bands
So I manned up then I ask to dance
So I've abandoned my conscious, feels so right
Trapped in the moment then we take flight
She's bendin' space and time
On a spaceship that lights the sky, so we go

She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (three)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (two)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (one)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (we have lift-off)

Two o'clock on the block and the night is young
I'm on the strip, windows down, knockin' bass drums
I got a sweet girl, more than a week, girl
Original style, yeah she's a keeper
Sometimes I can't figure what she does to me
She got custody, and I'm locked down
She so cool though I ain't tryin' to leave this girl
For a runaway ho (no, no, no, no)
She's pretty fresh, knew she was good from the day we met
no walls, no guards, she ain't into trends
had a sincere smile so innocent
So I surrender my bases, it's alright (alright)
Take me away love, I won't fight (I won't fight)
The night's precious, let's fly high
On a spaceship that lights the sky, so we go

She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (three)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (two)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (one)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (we have lift-off)

Three clouds zoom back, one million miles
From the ground, we share one million smiles
live a relapse, not just a recap
Pick a star, any star we can reach that
Sometimes I can't figure what it means to me
What it means to breathe, think about it though
Why should it make sense, go with the flow
So we live 'til the night ends, we can die then
She's pretty sweet, she takes me far from the crooked streets
And I wave goodbye at sonic speeds
to the Earth below, then we fly in peace
So I'm throwin' up that white flag, it's alright
buckled in tight for an outer-space flight
She's takin' me for a ride
On a spaceship that lights the sky, so we go

She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (three)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (two)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (one)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (we have lift-off)

She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (three)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (two)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (one)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (we have lift-off)

I wanna get-a, get-get-a, get-getaway
I wanna get-a, get-get-a, get-getaway
I wanna get-a, get-get-a, get-getaway
I wanna get-a, get-get-a, get-getaway

I wanna get-a, get-get-a, get-getaway
(Ha ha, and y'all ain't ever wanna go back)
I wanna get-a, get-get-a, get-getaway
(She takes me far, far away, so far away)
I wanna get-a, get-get-a, get-getaway
(I don't wanna come back)
I wanna get-a, get-get-a, get-getaway

She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (three)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (two)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (one)
She took me (took me) on a getaway spaceship (we have lift-off)
