Thought I could but I just can't wait
Started planning for my great escape,
Where I'd live and what I'd leave behind.
Made a list of things I'd have to take,
The things that make me feel like hell, for heavens sake,
Who I'd love and who would tow the line.
And I need you.
Everybody needs someone like you.
If you need me too,
You would be the only thing that I'd take
On my great escape.
I float through this town like a cosmonaut,
Reminding me of all the things I haven't got,
Like time and space, a smile on my face and you.
And I need you.
Everybody needs someone like you.
If you need me too,
You would be the only thing that I'd take with me.
Maybe I'll find that my destination
Is somewhere I already know.
And you were as far as I ever had to go.
And I need you…
(Thought I could but I just can't wait…)
Everybody needs someone like you…
(Started planning for my great escape…)
If you need me too…
(Who I'd love and who I'd leave behind…)
You would be the only thing that I'd take with me…
(Who I'd leave behind…)
I need you…
(Who I'd leave behind…)
Everybody needs someone like you…
If you need me too,
You would be the only thing that I'd take
On my great escape…
On my great escape…
