Great Escape

Thought I could but I just can't wait

Started plannin' for my great escape

Where I'd live and what I'd leave behind

Made a list of things I'd have to take

The things that make me feel like shit, for heavens sake

Who I'd love and who would tow the line

And I need you

Everybody needs someone like you

If you need me to

You would be the only thing that I'd take

On my great escape

I float through this town like a cosmonaut

Remindin' me of all the things I haven't got

Like time and space, a smile on my face and you

And I need you

Everybody needs someone like you

If you need me to

You would be the only thing that I'd take with me

Maybe I'll find that my destination

Is somewhere I already know

And you were as far as I ever had to go

And I need you

(Thought I could but I just can't wait)

Everybody needs someone like you

(Started plannin' for my great escape)

If you need me to

(Who I'd love and who I'd leave behind)

You would be the only thing that I'd take with me

(Who I'd leave behind)

I need you

(Who I'd leave behind)

Everybody needs someone like you

If you need me to

You would be the only thing that I?d take

On my great escape

On my great escape
