Lyrics

LET'S CUT & RUN By Collo

INTRO < 4 Bars>

VERSE 1
It’s after work on a Thursday night;
Been a tough week and I badly need some fun;
Into my favourite bar won’t leave till its midnight;
Could be a good night for me to meet someone

PRE-CHORUS 1
I saw you there with an empty glass of wine;
I cut in on the guy spinning you a line;
This is it, it’s gotta be my time

CHORUS 1
I am here looking right at you;
But he is looking at you to;
I’m worried where this will go;
I need to get this under control;
I am here looking right at you;
I smile and you smile at me to;
It’s time for me to make a move;
So I say “Hey babe, let’s cut & run”

BREAKDOWN <6 Bars>

VERSE 2
I am walking with you going down the street;
You move in tighter to keep the cold at bay;
We stop outside the club drawn by the pulsing beat;
We go inside want to hear the music play

PRE-CHORUS 2
We hit the floor and your moves blew me away;
I need to keep it tight, wanna be your protégé;
Then I see my ex, standing in the doorway.

CHORUS 2
I am here looking right at you;
But she is looking at me to;
I’m worried where this will go;
I need to get this under control;
I am here looking right at you;
I smile and you smile at me to;
It’s time for me to make a move;
So I say “Hey babe, let’s cut & run”

BRIDGE
A chance encounter, is it fate - our destiny;
What I see in you, I want you to see in me;
There is so much more to learn and our journey’s just begun;
The night is young and we need to get out and have our fun;
So let’s get going; yeah let’s just cut & run

CHORUS 3
I am here looking right at you;
I smile and you smile at me to;
It’s time for me to make a move;
So I say “Hey babe, let’s cut & run”
I am here looking right at you;
I smile and you smile at me to;
It’s time for me to make a move;
So I say “Hey babe, let’s cut & run”

Let’s just cut & run; let’s just cut & run;
Let’s just cut & run; let's cut & run;

Let's cut & run; let's cut & run
Let's cut & run; let’s just cut & run
