The Great Escape Songtext

von Radiator Hospital

I was watching the news from the movie theater bar and daydreaming of you.
No I've never been good at paying attention, but I'm learning to.
With my eyes glued, I'm watching the tube, but I'm not listening.
Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night and find yourself wishing that he'd walk in the room, sweep you off your feet, kiss you on the cheek and tell you he loves you?
Don't we all wish that it were that easy… So I walked home from the movies, sat on the couch, and turned on the TV.
I've heard so many stories, all of them ended with you and me.
So I try to be cool, but darlin' this feeling's hard to explain.
I've heard so many stories, all of them ended with your name.
So you lay in your bed, watch Dawn Of The Dead, and dream of the end of days when he'd walk in the room and say "Come with me, I know the way." So Happy Birthday baby, you're so much older than you thought you would be.
Happy Birthday baby, you're so much older than we thought you would be.
