[Verse 1]
Skipping town, down to Mexico
Lipstick on, in the Thunderbird, let's roll
Drive right off of the world, mmh
Leave your job and your gaslight man
Modern life was a big letdown, we're bored
Felt like a brick in a wall
[Pre-Chorus]
"'Cause days like these, you wanna get away
Close our eyes, pretend we're miles away
Hear the sound of my heart exploding
Can you hear the sound of my heart exploding?"
She said to me
[Chorus]
"Days like these, you wanna get away
Close our eyes, pretend we're miles away
Hear the sound of my heart exploding
Oh, oh, can you hear the sound of my heart exploding?"
She said to me
[Verse 2]
Runaways under big blue skies
Desert winds
Yeah, we made headlines when you showed
Him what it means to say no
[Pre-Chorus]
"'Cause days like these, you wanna get away
Close our eyes, pretend we're miles away
Hear the sound of my heart exploding
Can you hear the sound of my heart exploding?"
She said to me
[Chorus]
"Days like these, you wanna get away
Close our eyes, pretend we're miles away
Hear the sound of my heart exploding
Oh, oh, can you hear the sound of my heart exploding?"
[Outro]
And suddenly we're Thelma and Louise
You said, "Let's get the hell right out of here"
Oh, can you hear the sound of my heart exploding?
Oh, oh, can you hear the sound of my heart exploding?
Days like these, we wanna get away
Thelma + Louise (Apple Music Home Session) was written by Dan Smith & Mark Crew & Rami.
Thelma + Louise (Apple Music Home Session) was produced by Dan Smith & Mark Crew.
Bastille released Thelma + Louise (Apple Music Home Session) on Fri Dec 03 2021.
Thelma + Louise’ is about escapism through fiction and imagination to somewhere very different, and that was definitely something we’ve all had to do a lot through lockdowns. We wanted to reflect the amazing themes of the film and make the song feel like a narrative road movie of a song.
