[English]

Woo, what's the point of making excuses

Running out of the beach to count the stones

All the suppressions quietly took their leave

My heart scattering everywhere

My eyes see all the rare things in the world

Not chasing praise or achievements

Just changing into a sweater

In cold foreign land, building snow mounds on impulse

Come on, give me a shot

Just a little escape, taking a break and pretending not to care

Hoo, hey, need to fly right now, quickly turn off

Get away, the weather is so good here

Hoo, hey, I love to fly freely, sleep until I'm happy

Gotta get away, before I die of boredom

I'll be on my way, thinking of you elsewhere (thinking of you)

Promise I'll call you back tonight (Do you miss me?)

Walking small steps together

Building a castle together

Won't you come along with me

We're fine wherever we go

Then looking into the lake water

Fish passing by, jumping and making water splashes shake

Come on, give me a shot

Just a little escape, taking a break and pretending not to care

Hoo, hey, need to fly right now, quickly turn off

Get away, the weather here is so nice

Hoo, hey, I love to fly freely, sleep until I’m happy

Like a sweet dream, the days pass by

Waiting until it's time to meet up

Now let me go wander around

Just a little escape, taking a break and pretending not to care

Hoo, hey, need to fly right now, quickly turn off

Get away, the weather here is so lovely

Hoo, hey, I love to fly freely, sleep until I’m happy

Get away, get away

Gotta get away, gotta, gotta escape

Get away, get away

Grab a holiday, catch a, catch a holiday

Get away, get away

Gotta get away, gotta, gotta escape

Loving to fly freely

Sleep until I take off, feeling so high

...

[Chinese]

Woo 哪用藉口

衝出沙灘去數石頭

所有抑壓 悄悄出了走

心 散落四周

兩眼看盡世間罕有

不去追究 才華跟成就

便換上毛衣

嚴寒異國 太即興堆起雪丘

就來 給我

Just a little getaway 放假要愛理不理

Hoo 喂 即刻要飛 快熄機

Get away 這裡好天氣

Hoo 喂 喜歡放飛 瞓到不生氣

Gotta get away 就快就快悶到死

I'll be on my way 別處亦想你 (想你)

Promise I'll call you back tonight (掛唔掛住我啊)

一起小碎步

一起築了城堡

Won't you come with me

We good wherever we go

便望進湖水

魚兒路過 跳起水花都顫抖

就來 給我

Just a little getaway 放假要愛理不理

Hoo 喂 即刻要飛 快熄機

Get away 這裡好天氣

Hoo 喂 喜歡放飛 瞓到不生氣

如甜夢 時日過

總會等到 聚會時候

現在讓我去遊走

Just a little getaway 放假要愛理不理

Hoo 喂 即刻要飛 快熄機

Get away 這裡好天氣

Hoo 喂 喜歡放飛 瞓到不生氣

Get away, get away

Gotta get away, gotta, gotta get away

Get away, get away

Catch a holiday, catch a, catch a holiday

Get away, get away

Gotta get away, gotta, gotta get away

喜歡放飛

瞓到飛起
