So you left for California,
said you had nothin' left to say,
so you left for California,
you wanted blue skies not gray,
so I tried goin' to Seattle,
because it always rains,
so I tried goin' to Seattle,
but I still couldn't hide my pain,
We could never escape our memories,
we could never escape you and me,
we could never escape our dreams,
oh no, oh no,
So you went somewhere warm,
to escape how cold you feel,
so you went somewhere warm,
you were hopin' the sun would heal,
and I went to Canada,
'cause it seemed like your heart was froze,
yeah I went to Canada,
where I could hurt and no one would know,
We could never escape our memories,
we could never escape you and me,
we could never escape our dreams,
oh no, oh no,
Then you went down to L.A.,
so you could get a taste of fame,
then you went down to L.A.,
so maybe you wouldn't feel the same,
and I took off to London,
so I could climb on top of a clock,
and I took off to London,
thought if I jumped maybe time would stop,
We could never escape our memories,
we could never escape you and me,
we could never escape our dreams,
oh no, oh no,
Next you went to the beach,
so you could play in the sand,
yeah you went to the beach,
said you'd no longer hold my hand,
and I went to Texas,
'cause you know that place is huge,
yeah I went to Texas,
but I couldn't find refuge,
We could never escape our memories,
we could never escape you and me,
we could never escape our dreams,
oh no, oh no,
We could never escape our memories,
we could never escape you and me,
we could never escape our dreams,
oh no, oh no,
We could never escape our memories,
So I decided to follow you,
'cause you're the only girl,
I decided to follow you,
I'd go anywhere in the world,
We could never escape you and me,
Guess I'm going to California,
where the skies are oh so blue,
yes I'm going to California,
'cause I can't live without you,
We could never escape our dreams,
oh no, oh no,
oh no, oh no,
oh no, oh no,
