Catch Me If You Can
Chasing Shadows: The Escape Chronicles by Alan Walker & Sorana
Lyrics
Paris to L.A., then Texas
Travelling from Paris to Los Angeles and then to Texas.
Left a little trail of exes
Left behind a string of former romantic partners.
I'll be on a plane by breakfast
Planning to be on a plane before breakfast.
Au revoir, thanks a lot
Saying goodbye, expressing gratitude.
Scratch another of my checklist
Removing another item from a list of accomplishments or experiences.
One more time and not my necklace
Doing something one more time and it's not about material possessions.
Jealous judge me, I'm the bad sheep
People who are envious judge me negatively; I'm the outlier.
Donner ça, what you got?
Asking what someone else has to offer.
Here tonight, gone by day
Here for a short time, gone during the day.
I live my life like a runaway
Living life in a free-spirited and unrestricted manner.
You can try, maybe wanna stay
Others may attempt to make me stay, but I prefer to keep moving.
Catch me if you can, I'm a runaway
Challenging others to catch or keep up with the speaker's fast-paced lifestyle.
I'm a runaway
Reiteration of being a runaway and the challenge to catch the speaker.
I'm a runaway
-Country boys with real good manners
Referring to polite individuals from rural areas.
Hustlers from Louisiana
Referring to ambitious individuals from Louisiana, potentially involved in illicit activities.
Oh, go crying to their mamas
Mocking the tendency of some to seek comfort from their mothers when faced with departure.
When I leave, ç'est la vie
Expressing "such is life" in French, indicating acceptance of departure.
Here tonight, gone by day
Reiteration of being a runaway and the challenge to catch the speaker.
I live my life like a runaway
-You can try, maybe wanna stay
-Catch me if you can, I'm a runaway
-I'm a runaway
-I'm a runaway
-Do you wanna play a game?
Inviting someone to engage in a chase or competition, reinforcing the theme of being pursued.
Wanna play a game?
-Do you wanna play a game? (Do you)
-Gotta catch me if you can
-Catch me if you can
-Gotta catch me if you can (oh, oh)
-Here tonight, gone by day
Reiteration of living a runaway lifestyle and challenging others to catch up.
I live my life like a runaway
-You can try, maybe wanna stay
-Catch me if you can, I'm a runaway
-I'm a runaway
-I'm a runaway
-Catch me if you can, I'm a runaway
Reiteration of being a runaway and the challenge to catch the speaker.
