The Great Escape
(专辑: Because They Can - 1995)
(Look up) There's no man on the
moon tonight Guess he's turned his back on me (once again) The
wicked walls of this dead-end town are closing in and I
can't breathe (Sail away) Down the
river of shattered dreams My destiny's disguised (but I
will find it) Empty promises flow my way, adrift in shame; do you feel the
same? Another time, another place we won't be prisoners of fate Somehow, we'll find a
way to get out of here Oh, why don't we make the
great escape and set our sites on higher ground? We're taking the
ride all the
way to the
other side (Step inside) See the
man with the
cracked guitar Selling tales of sonic gray (the skies are falling) No one gathers to sympathize or pay tribute to his fading flame Tattoo girl on a
butterfly Sowing seeds of boundless hope (and devotion) Follow me through a
leap of faith; I
know the
way, I
heard her say Another time, another place we won't be prisoners of fate Somehow, we'll find a
way to get out of here Oh, why don't we make the
great escape and set our sites on higher ground? We're taking the
ride all the
way to the
other side I
know why you cry Just let go; it's easy if you try Another time, another place we won't be prisoners of fate Somehow, we'll find a
way to get out of here Oh, why don't we make the
great escape and set our sites on higher ground? We're taking the
ride all the
way to the
other side. Whoa, yeah! We've got to make the
great escape and leave behind what can't be saved We're taking the
ride all the
way to the
other side Don't look back, don't look back... Come on, come on, come on and take my hand Whoa! Sail away! Do you feel the
same like I
do? Don't look back
