I Can’t Escape Your Memory

Jack Alan Goga, Ivy Jo Hunter

[Intro]
Mmm hmm

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

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

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

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

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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
