Lyrics
Whatcha say we just get away?
Proposal to escape or take a break
Pack up and save it for a rainy day
Suggesting to save something for a difficult time
It's a side effect of love, my dear
Love has consequences, possibly challenges
Whatcha say we get out, just run?
Proposing to run away together
Follow our instincts in the settin' sun
Following instincts in a carefree manner
It's a side effect of havin' you near that's got me
The proximity of the person is affecting the speaker
Questionin' everythin' I've become
Doubting personal identity and choices
Wanted more than to be your number one
Desiring more than being just a romantic partner
Hatin' everythin' I've come to be
Expressing dissatisfaction with oneself
Hey, baby, you wanna be happy with me?
Asking if the person wants to find happiness together
Give me a sign and we'll go
Seeking a sign for a joint decision
If it's tonight or tomorrow
Indifferent about when to make a move
Give me a sign and we'll leave
Asking for a sign to leave
If it's tonight, baby, please
Preferably leaving tonight
Whatcha say you call your mother?
Suggesting a deception to avoid confrontation
Say we're fightin' on in each other
Creating a cover story for a disagreement
And it's the side effect of growin' up nice
Growing up well has its challenges
Whatcha mean that you're scared, babe?
Asking why the person is scared
Give me the keys, it's gonna be okay
Requesting control, assuring everything will be fine
It's just a side effect of changin' your life, that's got you
Changing life comes with emotional effects
Questionin' everythin' you've become
Reflecting on personal changes and choices
Wanted more than to be your number one
Desiring a significant role in the other's life
Hated everythin' you've come to be
Expressing dissatisfaction with personal growth
Hey, baby, you wanna be happy with me?
Asking if happiness can be found together
Give me a sign and we'll go
Seeking a sign for a joint decision (repeated)
If it's tonight or tomorrow
Indifferent about when to make a move (repeated)
Give me a sign and we'll leave
Asking for a sign to leave (repeated)
If it's tonight, baby, please
Preferably leaving tonight (repeated)
It's just a side effect of changin' your life
Emphasizing the emotional impact of life changes
It's just a side effect of changin' your life
Reiterating the side effect of changing life
Side effect of changin' your life
Highlighting the consequence of life changes
It's just a side effect of changin' your life
Further emphasizing the side effect of changing life
Give me a sign and we'll go
Seeking a sign for a joint decision (repeated)
If it's tonight or tomorrow
Indifferent about when to make a move (repeated)
Give me a sign and we'll leave
Asking for a sign to leave (repeated)
If it's tonight, baby, please
Preferably leaving tonight (repeated)
