Drove from Kendal down to Carcassone passing vineyards on the way,
we thought it was so beautiful, we'd really like to stay,
didn't need much money, just diesel for the van,
I felt the sun fall on my back, I was a happy man.
Sometimes you've got to get away, get away from what you know,
got to broaden your horizons, you've really got to go.
It's a little bit exciting, when you don't know where you are,
but you've got plenty of time, you're in no hurry, you're travelling far.

And I've got to get away, got to get away, another day,
yea I've got to get away, got to get away, another day.

I travelled on the Nile for a little while, got Sahara sand in my shoes,
walked the Champs Elys'es when it was breezy, I heard some Parisian blues.
I went to New York City with my guitar, to play for a friend of mine,
we flew around the Statue of Liberty, I saw it all for the very first time.

And I've got to get away, got to get away, another day,
yea I've got to get away, got to get away, another day.

When the feeling takes control of you, 
there's nothing in the world that you can't do.
When it's time to see a different view, you've got to get away,
got to get away.


And I've got to get away, got to get away, another day,
yea I've got to get away, got to get away, another day.
