Can't Get Away

Third Eye Blind · Third Eye Blind A Collection (The Best Of) [2006]

I miss the sand on the concrete floor

I miss the way it was before

no one even knew me

your eyes looked right through me

And I'm taking off your clothes

And you bloom like a rose



I can't get away from you (x2)



And where the ocean meets the land

Is like the sliding of your hand

Prickles up my skin

And I can feel the changing weather

Ride alone along that coast

Sense memories of your ghost



I can't get away from you (x4)



Deliver me

(One thing close to me and one thing trips me up)

Shut me up

(One thing trips me up, one thing won't give it up and)

Deliver me

(One thing close to me and one thing trips me up and)

(One thing reminding me and I go walk alone)

Release

(One thing won't [incomprehensible] one thing won't give me peace and)

Deliver me

(One thing won't let me go and, no and I can't go home)

Deliver me



Through the airport corridors

In magazines in stores

If I see your face once more

Cause you know I can't ignore it

I recognize that pose

When you bloomed like a rose



I can't get away from you (x4)



The jeep gets broken on a blown out road

and I'm a tourist with a real light load

And with the government hold another month away,

the messed up places where we always stay and it's

Funny how we always pick these spots

Feeling like a have in the land of have nots, sleeping on cots

Wishing that I had some tater-tots



And there's postcards written

I know I'll never send

The moment is gone and won't come again

I ride with souls who find no peace

Still I look to you to find release (find release, find release)



I watch the travelers return

Through the panic doors

Walking through the airport corridors

Welcome back now from foreign shores

And I walk alone

And the ghost that I carry is your

Tiger shark in the azure blue

The vision that we had it all returns to you,

returns to you, returns to you
