Never Escape

by Some Random Human   Apr 1, 2010


She said, "I think I'll go to California,
where the skies are oh so blue",
she said, "I think I'll go to California,
so I can forget about you",
I said, "I think I'll go to Seattle,
'cause it's always raining there",
I said, "I think I'll go to Seattle,
so I can cry and no one will care",

I could never escape my memories,
I could never escape you and me,
I could never escape my dreams,
oh no, oh no,

She said, "I think I'll go somewhere warm,
so I can smile out in the sun",
she said, "I think I'll go somewhere warm,
so I can forget you and have some fun",
I said, "I think I'll go to Canada,
so no one knows me when I'm freezing cold",
I said, "I think I'll go to Canada,
it's no more frozen than the heart you hold",

I could never escape my memories,
I could never escape you and me,
I could never escape my dreams,
oh no, oh no,

She said, "I think I'll go down to L.A.,
so I can meet all the movie stars",
she said, "I think I'll go down to L.A.,
so I can forget about all of these scars",
I said, "I think I'll go out to London,
so I can climb atop of Big Ben",
I said, "I think I'll go out to London,
and never come back again",

I could never escape my memories,
I could never escape you and me,
I could never escape my dreams,
oh no, oh no,

She said, "I think I'll go to the beach,
catch some sun and get a tan",
she said, "I think I'll go to the beach,
and forget about you 'cause I know I can",
I said, "I think I'll go to Texas,
wonder around 'till my eyes are crossed",
I said, "I think I'll go to Texas,
in all that space I'm sure I'll get lost",

I could never escape my memories,
I could never escape you and me,
I could never escape my dreams,
oh no, oh no,

I could never escape my memories,
I could never escape you and me,
I could never escape my dreams,
oh no, oh no,

I could never escape my memories,

The truth is it don't matter where I run,
the truth is I can't hide,
the truth is it don't matter where I run,
because I carry you inside,

I could never escape you and me,

Still I think I'll go to Seattle,
'cause it's always raining there,
still I think I'll go to Seattle,
so I can cry and no one will care,

I could never escape my dreams,
oh no, oh no,
oh no, oh no,
oh no, oh no,

Maybe I'll go to California...
