You Can't Get Away From It |
| You can’t get away from it |
| No matter how hard you try |
| 'Cause if you really love someone |
| You can never say goodbye |
| Now they can walk on you |
| Lie about you |
| Mistreat you and then |
| Even doubt you |
| But with all of these things |
| You know that there’ll be love |
| So high you can’t get over it, and then |
| So low you can’t go under it |
| You can’t get away from it |
| No matter how hard you try |
| When your days and nights are ending |
| You want to hear your baby’s tender sigh |
| Even strong men will cry |
| Turn his back and wipe the tears from his eyes 'cause |
| Love is like a fence |
| You know that it’s |
| So high you can’t get over it, and then it’s |
| So low you can’t go under it, yeah |
| Oh, you can’t get away from it |
| No matter how hard you try |
| 'Cause if you really really really really really really love someone |
| Now you can never say goodbye |
| Now they can walk on you |
| Lie about you |
| Mistreat you |
| Even doubt you |
| But with all of these things |
| You know that there’ll be love |
| So high you can’t get over it, I know, and |
| So low you can’t go under it, I know |
| You can’t get away from it |
| I got to the river |
| I started to drown |
| Thought about my baby |
| I turned around |
| I’ve been to the mountain |
| Forget my trouble |
| Thought about my baby |
| I come back on the double |
