The Great Escape Songtext
von Amelia

The great escape never came like the movies
No brave attempt to scale the fence,
Never who he ever wanted to be
So he lies awake and thinks
With a half a mind to break away


The starts and ends
And the time she spends in the middle
Is the dullest pain,
But she won′t complain just a little
And the house is a mess
So she lies awake and waits
For the love that got away

It's cold outside but here, it was better
A shelter while the years grew together
For could-have-beens and beauty in decline
