Nelson - The Great Escape Lyrics
(look up) theres no man on the moon tonightGuess hes turned his back on me (once again)The wicked walls of this dead-end town are closing in and I cant breathe(sail away) down the river of shattered dreams;My destinys disguised (but I will find it)Empty promises flow my way, adrift in shame; do you feel the same?Chorus:Another time, another place we wont be prisoners of fateSomehow, well find a way to get out of hereOh, why dont we make the great escape and set our sites on higher ground?Were taking the ride all the way to the other side(step inside) see the man with the cracked guitarSelling tales of sonic gray (the skies are falling)No one gathers to sympathize or pay tribute to his fading flameTattoo girl on a butterflySowing seeds of boundless hope (and devotion)Follow me through a leap of faith; I know the way, I heard her sayChorusBridge:I know why you cryJust let go; its easy if you tryOut chorus:Another time, another place we wont be prisoners of fateSomehow, well find a way to get out of hereOh, why dont we make the great escape and set our sites on higher ground?Were taking the ride all the way to the other side. whoa, yeah!Weve got to make the great escape and leave behind what cant be savedWere taking the ride all the way to the other sideDont look back, dont look back...Come on, come on, come on and take my hand.Whoa! sail away!Do you feel the same like I do?Dont look back
