it's been years
since the big escape
the summer days
were gorgeous as your face
i mean it
the birds sang
we fell in love
we got fired
we got fired up
i needed it
ooo ooo
ooo ooo
ooo ooo oooo
and we come
to a harder part
the casualties of a war
we didn't start
and never ever wanted
i've got the time
if you've got the notion
i've got the patience
if you've got the gusto
all of our strengths
will fit just like a puzzle
all the way down the west coast
it's about time for a big escape
it's about time for a big escape
it's about time for a big escape
it's about time for a big escape
ooo ooo (repeat)
