Lea & Nico Santos Lyrics

"The Great Escape"
(originally by Ilse DeLange)

The leaves will fall again
The wind comes crawling in
The rain with all its sin
Captures me again
The words it threw my way
Filled my soul with pain
My anger into space
Almost finds its way again, its way again

By the time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from Heaven
In every picture that I drew I saw you
Falling, falling, falling from Heaven

I got down on my knees and prayed
I was calling, calling, calling to Heaven
Just in time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from Heaven

From an empty face
The smile wiped away
Eyes that never see
Blind the deepest me
Act a small charade
Words you can't explain
Silence louder than the doubt
Lingers in the sound

By the time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from Heaven
In every picture that I drew I saw you
Falling, falling, falling from Heaven

I got down on my knees and prayed
I was calling, calling, calling to Heaven
Just in time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from Heaven

By the time I made the great escape I was falling, falling

In every picture that I drew I saw you falling

By the time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from Heaven
In every picture that I drew I saw you
Falling, falling, falling from Heaven

I got down on my knees and prayed
I was calling, calling, calling to Heaven
Just in time I made the great escape
I was falling, falling, falling from Heaven
