I Can't Escape From You Lyrics - The The

I've tried and tried to run and hide 

To find a life that's new 

But wherever I go I always know 

I can't escape from you 

A jug of wine to numb my mind 

But what good does it do? 

The jug runs dry and still I cry 

I can't escape from you 

These wasted tears are souvenirs 

Of love, I thought was true 

Your memory is chained to me 

I can't escape from you 

There is no end, I can't pretend 

That dreams will soon come true 

A slave too long to a heart of stone 

I can't escape from you 

{This is Hank Williams speaking for all the boys 

And saying "If the good Lord's willin' 

And the creeps don't rise, we'll see you for long" 

And until then}
