R.Meisner, W. Waldman, and E. Kaz Gotta get away Gonna leave this town today It's been too long a time I've been ready to go But I just couldn't face it My back's to the wall Ooh, don't you know I can't take it no more This time in my life I know I won't be coming home Can't you see in my eyes I'm gonna have to go it alone I don't know where I'm going All I know Is that I gotta get away from here There ain't nothin' in these dusty streets But there's something in these dreams I don't know what they mean They come and they go And they keep haunting me Night after night I turn them away But they keep calling This time in my life I know I won't be coming home Can't you see in my eyes I'm gonna have to go it alone I don't know where I'm going All I know Is that I gotta get away from here
