No Escape

NO ESCAPE - Written by Carroll Bryant

This is it

This is the end of all our dreams

As I watch you pack your bags

And you walk right out on me

Hit or miss

I guess it’s really just all the same

You get in your car

There’s an ache in my heart

I guess it’s how we’re gonna play this game

And no, there’s no escaping what we had

When you cry the tears for all those happy years

They really weren’t all that bad

And so, we can both take credit now

For a job undone

For a song unsung

And the way that it all went down

And no, there’s no escaping that

There it is

Our story in an old nut shell

As my world falls down on me

I can see the end so well

Giving in

To a notion that it’s all worth while

I get to the part

Where your car won’t start

But then you go and walk a country mile

And no, there’s no escaping what we had

When you cry the tears for all those happy years

They really weren’t all that bad

And so, we can both take credit now

For a job undone

For a song unsung

And the way that it all went down

And no, there’s no escaping that

I look at you

You look at me

In our eyes we both can see

That everything is going to change

I look up

You look away

Fancy that, no words to say

And everything is going to change

This is it

This is the end of all our dreams

As I watch you pack your bags

And you walk right out on me

And no, there’s no escaping what we had

When you cry the tears for all those happy years

They really weren’t all that bad

And so, we can both take credit now

For a job undone

For a song unsung

And the way that it all went down

And no, there’s no escaping what we had

When you cry the tears for all those happy years

They really weren’t all that bad

And so, we can both take credit now

For a job undone

For a song unsung

And the way that it all went down

And no, oh no, there’s no escaping that
