You got a fast car Had a feeling that I could be someone Is it fast enough so we can fly away? Leave tonight or live and die this way So remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before

I wanna take my heart to the end of the world I won't waste another day Wishing this would fade away Fly away tonight Na na na na na na na I want a little bit of California With a little bit of London sky And fly away tonight I want a little bit of open

You almost had your hooks in me, didn't you dear You nearly had me roped and tied Altar-bound, hypnotized Sweet freedom whispered in my ear You're a butterfly And butterflies are free to fly Fly away, high away, bye bye And someone saved my life tonight,
