Lisa Bastoni: Music

Your Great Escape

(Lisa Bastoni)
You need a job
You need some money
You got too much time
On your hands
You can't catch a break
You don't think it's funny
What time has made
of all your plans

Chorus:
Your great escape
What have you done
Are you ready to come home now
Are you ready to come home

The shower water
Kisses you like teardrops
You can't buy a raindrop
It hasn't rained all year
You're just killing time
You promised not to do that
You're hoping it's not true
That you can't get out of there

Chorus

You love that muddy river
that runs right through your town
You remember the bars and the streets
And the songs that never let you down.

You pawn a ring
Your bills are due
A hundred dollars
You can save it for the move
That little diamond
Never meant a thing to you
You still have credit
And nothing left to prove

Chorus
