[00:01.42]Sitting there at home, he arrived home late
[00:07.36]With no more blood cells to inebriate
[00:13.73]He lunged at her there, she fell from the couch
[00:19.73]He grabbed her body as he pulled her down
[00:24.86]She was screaming no, kicking out at him
[00:32.11]But he weighed a ton, she could never win
[00:37.67]He fell down on her like a sack of snakes
[00:44.74]Tears fell from her face as she cried and cried
[00:50.30]When there's hope, when there's fear
[00:54.30]What is there to say that he might hear
[00:56.99]You turn him down with no mistake
[00:59.80]Now you're leaving, the great escape
[01:12.74]She ran from the room out of their back door
[01:18.18]Leaving him to sleep on the front room floor
[01:24.74]And she walked that night to the town hall square
[01:30.77]She knew it was through and she didn't care
[01:37.21]She stood up to him, he looked down on her
[01:43.46]He shot the message and the messenger
[01:49.08]When he woke he was sick with all the shame
[01:55.15]Tears fell from his face as she cried and cried
[02:01.40]When there's hope, when there's fear
[02:04.52]What is there to say that he might hear
[02:07.77]You turn him down with no mistake
[02:10.96]Now you're leaving, the great escape
[02:27.17]
[02:39.36]She arrived back home, he was on his knees
[02:45.30]Begging with his heart please come back to me
[02:51.11]When there's hope, when there's fear
[02:54.15]What is there to say that he might hear
[02:56.96]You turn him down with no mistake
[03:00.08]Now you're leaving, the great escape
