Escape
Jaiden Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey, why don't you let somebody love you for a change?
I know with all the hurt you've been through it seems strange
For someone to truly just want to see a smile on your face to really know that you're okay

I know you want to run far away from love
Even though Love's been chasing you
It's hard for you to know what to do
I know you really don't want a relationship
‘cause you don't really believe in it

I'm here to prove to you today…

If you let me, I'll be your escape
I'll be that quiet place you run to be safe
If you let me, I'll take you to a place inside your mind
That will transcend all space and time
Can I be your escape?

Although you're overwhelmed by the stress of everyday
Nothing could ever ever be strong enough to replace
The beauty of having someone who understands your life
and rides with you each day.

I know you want to run far away from love
Even though Love's been chasing you
Because you don't know what to do
I know you really don't want a relationship
‘cause you don't really believe in it

But I'm here to prove to you today, that...

If you let me, I'll be your escape
I'll be that quiet place you run to be safe
If you let me, I'll take you to a place inside your mind
That will transcend all space and time
Can I be your escape?

You deserve the same butterflies that you give me
You deserve to feel the way I feel when you're with me
You deserve a love that last for more than just a while
Can I be the thought that makes you smile?

If you let me, I'll be your escape
I'll be that quiet place you run to be safe
If you let me, I'll take you to a place inside your mind




That will transcend all space and time
Can I be your escape?
