Escape
Michael Zhonga Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take my hand we'll escape

Give me a sign and I
I I I'll make you mine
Give me your trust and our
Emotions will intertwine

How much you wanna bet

I I I shall you make you sweat
Prisoners in this life
This passion; this sacrifice

Help me my love
I'm crawling to you
I'm craving your presence
It's long overdue

I'm begging for contact
Demanding you never hold back

Take my hand we'll escape
From the vicious hands of time
And the lethal swarm of lies
With me you'll be safe
There is no harm
For you I'll wait

Never let me go
And the sun has gone down
Pray I'll see you again
Distorted minds cause feelings to drown

Follow follow your heart
And we'll never be apart
Understand who we are
And how strong to go how far

Together we search for flight
Like butterflies towards the light
Unwrapping our mysteries
No one knows our history

Help me my love
I'm crawling to you
I'm craving your presence
It's long overdue

I'm begging for contact
Demanding you never hold back

Take my hand we'll escape
From the vicious hands of time
And the lethal swarm of lies
With me you'll be safe
There is no harm
For you I'll wait

Never let me go
And the sun has gone down
Pray I'll see you again
Distorted minds cause feelings to drown

Let yourself fall
I'll be waiting right here
You'll never leave my arms
Breathe life into me and surrender

There's no other way
Like this we'll remain
Press against me
And let the sweet scent drive you insane

Never leave me

Take my hand we'll escape
From the vicious hands of time
And the lethal swarm of lies
With me you'll be safe
There is no harm
For you I'll wait

I won't let you go
And the sun will rise once more
Pray you'll stay here with me
Just knowing now that I am all yours

Let yourself fall...
Take my hand we'll escape
