One Way Out

(Album: Breaking Curfew - 1984)

Stand too close
I can feel her pull me in
All the time here waiting
Has been wasted in the wind

Adjusted to your way
And the corner of your stare
You can only stand so close to it
Before you see love isn't there

And there is just one way out
Your heart can't see but your mind concedes
Just one way out, just one way out
But, you don't want to go alone
Just one way out

Here we go again
Should have had it down by now
But you never know why or when
Or where this could lead

So you open the door, stand out proud
Brave the new frontier
I knew you could if you only tried
Walk away from these dark tears

And there is just one way out
Your heart can't see but your mind concedes
Just one way out
Rugged lovers never learn how to bleed

Just one way out
But you don't want to go alone
Just one way out

Oh, I'm missing you
The change will do you good
Oh, I'm missing you
Though I never thought I would

Oh, the distance here
Here in my head
Oh, the darkness lies
In the words we said

Thinking I could love you
I can feel her pull me in
All the time here waiting
Has been wasted in the wind

So open the door, stand out proud
Brave the new frontier
I knew you could if you only tried
Walk away from these dark tears

And there is just one way out
Your heart can't see but your mind concedes
Just one way out
Rugged lovers never learn how to bleed

Just one way out
But you don't want to go alone
Just one way out
You don't want to go alone

But you don't want to go alone
No, you don't want to go alone
You don't want to go alone
