[Verse 1]
I wanna go see the country
I want to get out of here
I'm sick of looking at graffiti
On the walls of the grey walls, the city
I want to drive in the countryside
I want the breeze in my hair
I am touching your leg and
I have my hand in your hand
[Chorus]
Take me to the beach, take me to the country
Climb in the backseat if you love me
Hire me a car, I wanna go driving
Climb in the backseat, that's where you'll find me
[Verse 2]
I see mosquitoes, they buzz past
Your hand is in mine
I look out the window, it looks stunning
To see the sun is setting in the sky
Everyone is wavin' out the window
It's like they're excited we're here
I stopped by the fish and chips shop
They act like mates, it makes me cheer
[Chorus]
Take me to the beach, take me to the country
Climb in the backseat if you love me
Hire me a car, I wanna go driving
Climb in the backseat, that's where you'll find me
[Post-Chorus]
I want you to love me
Do you love me?
[Verse 3]
I tell you, time is not linear
Especially when we're here in this car
Your hand in my hair, my hand in your hand
I love breathin' this fresh air
We stop there, right on the roadside
I take my shoes off, ground's cold
The sun is still beaming through the moon, clouds and stars
I want it all
[Chorus]
Take me to the beach, take me to the country
Climb in the backseat if you love me
Take me to the beach, take me to the country
Climb in the backseat, do you love me?
[Post-Chorus]
I want you to love me
Do you love me?

Amy Taylor:
I think I started writing it at the start of 2020, pre-lockdown. But it’s funny now, because currently, being in lockdown again, I’m literally dying. I just want to get to the country and fucking not be in the city. So, the lyrics have really just come to fruition. I was thinking about...
