Escape Is So Simple

The way you kissed me this morning It told me that you soon would be going You didn't even look in my eyes When you said goodbye And last night in your sleep you broke all the promises That I knew you would never keep Now I'm reading the letter which you placed on the dresser And you're five hundred miles down the road Escape is so simple In a world where sunsets can be raced But distance only looses the knife The pattern of it's scar Can always be traced Yeah, I remember when we said 'forever' Was the craziest word that we knew But I think that I like it much better than I do 'goodbye' And I could sit here all evening and think of the reasons Why you are not by my side Instead I'll go to the kitchen, find a strong chair to sit in And drink myself far, far away Escape is so simple In a world where sunsets can be raced But distance only looses the knife The pattern of it's scar Can always be traced
