Clean Getaway LyricsIt happened in an instant, oh
The midnight voices got through
You were feeling fenced in, oh
You grabbed a change of clothes and your best shoes
Did you even pack a single photograph of me?
One little memory?
You thought it would be easy
Maybe it was for you
I watched you walk away
I still don't know why
I guess you were running
And from my window pane I started to cry
And if there's a single sound I'll never forget
It's your engine rumbling
I wish you'd seen the mess that you made
With your clean getaway
Standing in the hallway, oh
I hear the echo of your footsteps
Blue eyes and your last name, oh
Are the only things that you left
Are we still a family?
Did you ever love me-ee?
Were you ever happy?
Doubt I'll ever know
I hope you find what you're lookin' for
I watched you walk away
I still don't know why
I guess you were running
And from my window pane I started to cry
And if there's a single sound I'll never forget
It's your engine rumbling
I wish you'd seen the mess that you made
With your clean getaway

When I grow up, I'll never be like you
Like you
'Cause I watched you walk away, I still don't know why
And from my window pane I started to cry
And if there's a single sound I'll never forget
It's your engine rumbling
I wish you'd seen the mess that you made, oh
Yeah, I wish you'd seen the mess that you made, oh
Yeah, I wish you'd seen the mess that you made
With your clean getaway
