Grand Escape

In place of wings that could have flown us through the sky We chose to use our hands to hold each other tight And yet, the endless blue enchants our hearts and minds How could it be a sin to dream all through our lives? The fall arrives as summer watches from ahead How does she feel as green fades into gold and red? Could it be love she feels, this yearning in her heart? A dream she cannot touch, as seasons kept apart The rain is still called rain wherever it may fall The sun still shines through leaves to warm us one and all And so you’ll always, always, always just be you Whatever time goes past, whatever you’ve been through This day comes but once in a thousand years When gravity’s asleep Let’s stand in the sun’s hidden blind spot We’ll say goodbye to earth and leap When the sun wakes up and opens his eyes We can be miles and miles away We’ll fly to a planet so far, Count one, two, three and we’re on our way Let’s go! Let’s go! Let’s go! I caught a summer cold, it made my heart beat fast Time always runs away, I wish that it could last The whirling world keeps spinning, blurring all I see You’re all that’s standing still, just like you’ll always be I still remember since the day that we first met My dream-filled night came to a sudden happy end I waited oh so long so deep inside the ground Just for this moment that we’re sharing here and now This day comes but once in a thousand years When gravity’s asleep With the bang of the fireworks flying We’ll say goodbye to earth and leap When the sun wakes up and opens his eyes We can be miles and miles away We’ll fly to a planet so far, Count one, two, three and we’re on our way Let’s go! Just a little more until we’re free from our fate Just a bit more until we’re free from this place Just a little more until we’re free from our fate Just a bit (X2) Spreading our sails here within our dreams Crossing the night to the dawn past all the stormy weather Tanks full of hope bursting at the seams Arm round your shoulder, saying everything will be right in the end We’re not afraid, plans we’ve made are bound to go our way Even if we’re caught in the waves, Winds won’t keep us from the course we’ve laid This is our love! This is our voice! �Shouting out loud It’s time to go!
