Getaway Car Lyrics by Taylor Swift Taylor Swift

Below, you will find the lyrics for Getaway Car by Taylor Swift.
Intro
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
Verse 1
It was the best of times, the worst of crimes
I struck a match and blew your mind
But I didn't mean it
And you didn't see it
Verse 1
The ties were black, the lies were white
In shades of gray and candlelight
I wanted to leave him
I needed a reason
Chorus 1
X marks the spot where we fell apart
He poisoned the well, I was lying to myself
I knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed
We never had a shotgun shot in the dark
You were drivin' the getaway car
We were flyin', but we'd never get far
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
Think about the place where you first met me
Ridin' in a getaway car
There were sirens in the beat of your heart
Should've known I'd be the first to leave
Think about the place where you first met me
In a getaway car
No, they never get far
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
Verse 2
It was the great escape, the prison break
The light of freedom on my face
But you weren't thinking
And I was just drinking
Verse 2
Well, he was running after us, I was screaming, 'Go, go, go!'
But with three of us, honey, it's a sideshow
And a circus ain't a love story
And now we're both sorry
Chorus 2
X marks the spot where we fell apart
He poisoned the well, every man for himself
I knew it from the first Old Fashioned, we were cursed
It hit you like a shotgun shot to the heart
You were drivin' the getaway car
We were flyin', but we'd never get far
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
Think about the place where you first met me
Ridin' in a getaway car
There were sirens in the beat of your heart
Should've known I'd be the first to leave
Think about the place where you first met me
In a getaway car
No, they never get far
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
Bridge
We were jet-set, Bonnie and Clyde
Until I switched to the other side, to the other si-i-i-i-ide
It's no surprise, I turned you in
'Cause us traitors never win
I'm in a getaway car
I left you in the motel bar
Put the money in a bag and I stole the keys
That was the last time you ever saw me
Chorus 3
Drivin' the getaway car
We were flyin', but we'd never get far
Don't pretend it's such a mystery
Think about the place where you first met me
Ridin' in a getaway car
There were sirens in the beat of your heart
Should've known I'd be the first to leave
Think about the place where you first met me
In a getaway car
No, they never get far
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
Outro
I was ridin' in a getaway car
I was cryin' in a getaway car
I was dyin' in a getaway car
Said 'goodbye' in a getaway car
Ridin' in a getaway car
I was cryin' a getaway car
I was dyin' in a getaway car
Said 'goodbye' in a getaway car
