New Way Out

I know how hard she’ll take it

When she finds out I can’t stay

So I don’t want to have to tell her

If there’s any other way.

Is there any new way out

Hearts are never broken.

Is there any new way out?

And no-one’s ever hurt in anger.

New way out, and harsh words are never spoken.

Is there any new way out?

Now it only stands to reason

With all the plans that miss

That someone might have stumbled

On a better way than this.

Is there any new way out

Where tears are never needed?

Is there any new way out

Where no-one ever needs surrender

New way out, neither side’s mistreated.

Is there any new way out?

Is there any new way out

Where hearts are never broken?

Is there any new way out

And no-one’s ever hurt in anger?

New way out, and harsh words are never spoken.

Is there any new way out?
