Lyrics The Great Escape - Ilse Delange

The Great Escape

The leaves will fall again
The wind comes crawling in The rain with all its sin
Captures me again
The words that threw my way
Filled my soul with pain
My anger into space
Almost finds it’s way again
Questions to embrace
Feelings that you face
In this holy land
Desert made of quick sand
Streets that lead you there
Places of your fear
Some force pulls you in The shadow words
By the time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from heaven
In every picture that I drew, I saw
You falling, falling, falling from heaven
From an empty face
The smile whipped away
Eyes that never see
Blind the deepest me Act a small charade
Words you can’t explain
Silence louder than the doubt
Lingers in the sound
By the time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from heaven
In every picture that I drew, I saw
You falling, falling, falling from heaven
I got down on my knees and pray
I was calling, calling, calling to heaven
Just in time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from heaven
If you just talk to me If you just look at me We’ll be alright
By the time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from heaven
In every picture that I drew, I saw
You falling, falling, falling from heaven
I got down on my knees and pray
I was calling, calling, calling to heaven
Just in time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from heaven
Falling from heaven
