Strum
D-DU-UDU
Thought  I could
 But I just can't wait
Started  planning for my great escape
Where  I'd live and
What  I'd leave behind.
 Made a list of things I'd have to take
 Things that make me feel like hell for heaven's sake
 Who I'd love and
 Who would toe the line.
 And I need  you
 Everybody needs  someone like you
 If you need  me too
 You would be  the only thing  that I'd take
 On my great escape.
 Float through this time like a cosmonaut
 Reminding me of all the things I haven't got
 Like time and space
 A smile on my face
 And you
 And I need you
 Everybody needs someone like you
 If you need me too
 You would be the only thing that I'd take with me...
Maybe  I find  that my destination
 Is somewhere  I already  know
You  were as far  as I ever  had  to go
 And I need you
 (thought I could, but I just can't wait)
 Everybody needs someone like you
 (started planning for my great escape)
 If you need me too
 (Who I'd love and)
 You would be the only thing that I'd take with me
 (what I'd leave behind,
 what I'd leave behind)
 I need you
 Everybody needs someone like you
 If you need me too
 You would be the only thing that I'd take
 On my great escape
 On my great escape
 On my great escape
