How To Get Away

Dear I promise you'll do better When you sign along the dotted line You'll find no terrors int he margins Clear as day, how to get away And I wouldn't trade the years we spent in stillness I'm still on my feet only because you kept me from leaping I'm holding out hope you'll find your eyes upon a new day But all I can give you is how to get away One more year would be so easy Not a care, and nothing we would dare Then one year on we'd be the same kids Going gray for the ones that got away And I wouldn't trade our peaceful, paltry heaven It kept my head straight, knowing we'd never have to grow But ages ago, I started waiting for today Now I've nothing to give you but how to get away I'm holding out hope you'll find your eyes upon a new day But all I can give you is how to get away
