"I Can't Escape Your Memory" lyrics

"I Can't Escape Your Memory"

Mmm hmm

I'm in a prison that the eye can't see
It's like my shadow always fell behind me
A ball and chain that weighs on my mind
Forever chaining to bygone times

I'm locked in memory
You're such a part of me
No matter what, I can't break free, girl
Your love's a prison and my love is the key to set me free

I can't escape your memory
No, no, no
I can't, I can't escape your memory
Oh, listen, baby

Awaken from my sleep, I hear your call, girl (Hear your call)
I hear your footsteps runnin' down the hall
I hurry to my door, your face to see
But there's nobody standin' there but me

My heart just won't believe
My eyes won't see, huh
That it's all over and you're truly gone, baby
The uselessness of me hangin' on, my love's so strong

(I can't escape (I can't escape) your memory)
I can't escape your memory
No, no, no

Oh, oh, oh, listen, baby
My love for you distorts reality
I walk the borders of insanity
Afraid to close my eyes
I'm afraid that I might see, huh
Behind the borders of my memory, girl
Into a world of insanity, come help me

I can't escape your memory
No, I can't, I can't escape your memory
Oh, oh

I can't, I can't escape, I can't escape it
No, no, no
I can't escape, oh, I can't escape your memory
No, no, no, no, no
I can't escape
