"Get Away" Songtext
von John Wetton

Get away, get away, get away from me now
Get away, get away, get away from me now

You wanted to see me again
Though when I was in need of a friend
You threw me away at the end of the day
You′re not going to do it again

You wasted my time all along
So I've nothing to say to you now
You wouldn′t avail when the goods were for sale
So don't you come after me now

Get away, get away, get away from me now
Get away, get away, get away from me now

Stop the game, I want to start again
When I changed my hand, I'd thrown the old one in
I′m out on my own, strictly alone, and baby you′re going to see
Things turn around when you bring somebody down

Get away, get away, get away from me now
Get away, get away, get away from me now


It's a hell of game that you played
You leading me ′round by the nose
I'm so sick and tired of the same stupid lies
And you say that anything goes

Snapping your fingers at me
There was nothing that I wouldn′t do
I'm a singular man and I do what I can
But I can′t take a day more of you

Stop the game, I want to start again
An' I changed my hand, thrown the old one in
I'm out on my own, strictly alone, and baby you′re going to see
You don′t have to choose when you've nothing left to lose

Get away, get away, get away from me now
Get away, get away, get away from me now

You wanted to see me again
Though when I was in need of a friend
Well, you threw me away at the end of the day
You′re not going to do it again

It's a hell of a game that you played
There was nothing that I wouldn′t do
I'm so sick and tired of the same stupid lies
Well, can′t take a day more of you


You wasted my time all along
So I've nothing to say to you now
You wouldn't avail when the goods were for sale
So don′t you come after me now
