Nelson - The Great Escape lyrics
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, oh
 (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 sights 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 sayNelson - The Great Escape - http://motolyrics.com/nelson/the-great-escape-lyrics.html
 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 sights 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
Find a way, ooh
 Do you feel the same, 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 sights on higher ground?
 We're taking the ride all the way to the other side, oh 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, oh
 (Don't look back)
 Come on, come on, come on and take my hand, oh
 (Don't look back)
 Whoa, sail away, do you feel the same like I do?
 (Don't look back)
