(Verse 1)
It's like waking up in the backseat of a taxi
That's 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
I'm a mess and I know that
She's in the Goldilocks zone

She's 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 you'll catch me
When I jump for you

And please say you're with me
When I ask you to
Runaway and start a new life somewhere else

We'll take the car and head for the horizon
We'll keep on going until we're finally
Somewhere far away

From this !@#$ place
So let's start a new life somewhere else


(Verse 2)
I'm just a boy with big dreams of moving into the city
Though I love it here in the suburbs but I'm still

So far away from you
Is it bad that I think about you every day?
And how I know now you'll forever be

The girl who takes my breath away
And not to mention your adorable smile
Those lips I cannot wait to taste

So I'm giving you my everything
Cause I thought I had you figured out


(Chorus)
Oh please say you'll catch me
When I jump for you

And please say you're with me
When I ask you to
Runaway and start a new life somewhere else

We'll take the car and head for the horizon
We'll keep on going until we're finally
Somewhere far away

From this !@#$ place
So let's start a new life somewhere else


(Bridge)
Oh girl I've made a mistake
In Waterloo yesterday

But I can't help myself but feel this way
I shouldn't 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 you've said

You will never be my Juliet
Now I'm singing


(Ending chorus)
You won't say you'll catch me
When I jump for you

You won't say you're with me
When I ask you to
Runaway and start a new life somewhere else

Won't take the car and head for the horizon
We won't keep on going until we're finally
Somewhere far away

From this !@#$ place
And we won't start a new life somewhere else
Because you didn't want to.
