Lyrics

They say you never know what you got until it's gone

Reflecting on the realization that one may not appreciate something until it's lost.

He's gonna learn the hard way, when he finds you long gone

The person will understand the consequences when they discover the absence of a loved one.

Gone like the wind in your hair, hands in the air

Describing the swift departure, likening it to the wind in the hair and carefree gestures.

Singing, so long, good luck

Bidding farewell, wishing luck to the departing person.

I wanna set your heart free, ride with me

Expressing a desire to liberate the loved one's heart and share a journey together.

I wanna be your getaway

Aspiring to be the person's escape and source of freedom.

Heart free, ride with me

Reiterating the wish for a liberated heart and a shared ride.

I wanna be your getaway truck

Expressing the desire to be the getaway vehicle for the person.
