MONICA LYRICS - Getaway

"Getaway"



[Verse 1:]

Started as a little girl

Singing so changed my world

Flipped my world upside down

I got lost and I couldn't be found

So much on my shoulders

So much on my mind

Since no one can help me

I think I just need some time



[Chorus:]

Sometimes I wish I could hide away

Looking for a place to getaway

Getaway from all the heartache and pain that life can bring

I really don't want to sound

Like I can't hold my ground

But everybody needs some time

That they can getaway



[Verse 2:]

Sometimes I wish I was invisible

'Cause then no one will know

Where I am to ask me for anything

'Cause I've given so much of me

When it's a time for me to receive

'Cause Monica has her needs

Who's going to look out for me?



[Chorus:]

Sometimes I wish I could hide away

Looking for a place to getaway

Getaway from all the heartache and pain that life can bring

I really don't want to sound

Like I can't hold my ground

But everybody needs some time

That they can getaway



[Verse 3:]

You know I'm not superwoman

And I'm not made of steel

I try my best to handle

All I have to deal with

It's not as easy as it seems

And to think this was my dream

Now for everything I have I'm grateful

But sometimes I want to get away



[Chorus:]

Sometimes I wish I could hide away

Looking for a place to getaway

Getaway from all the heartache and pain that life can bring

I really don't want to sound

Like I can't hold my ground

But everybody needs some time

That they can getaway



[Chorus:]

Sometimes I wish I could hide away

Looking for a place to getaway

Getaway from all the heartache and pain that life can bring

I really don't want to sound

Like I can't stand my ground

But everybody needs some time

That they can getaway
