The Greatest Escape We Ever Made Lyrics

Wave Machines The Greatest Escape We Ever Made

Under Spanish skies we would drive on a vapor to the sea
We would watch the night losing height push the sun into the trees
Keep our hands held tight, knuckles white where the blood is s'posed to be
Darkness bleeding starlight that would bring us to our knees
I talk to you on telephones we made
From tin cans we found lying in the shade
A dream of being in hiding for a lifetime
Was the greatest escape we ever made
Spending every day on our backs blowing clouds across the sky
Throwing time away cos we can cos we're never going to die
We could be stars, come out in the dark
I talk to you on telephones we made
From tin cans we found lying in the shade
A dream of being in hiding for a lifetime
Was the greatest escape we ever made
Where did you go, come back to me
Oh sweet desire and constancy
And so the thing that makes us bleed
Will beat its last, will cease to be
