Daring Daylight Escape

Caedmon's Call · 40 Acres [1999]

I've got my mind made up

I've got to love you or leave you fast

'Cause I've been thinking clear

Ans I don't know how long it'll last

Just like Uri Gellar, I'm bound to twist the facts around

I've got to get them straight before my baby up and leaves town



'Cause I can't walk on water

And if I chase you, I might drown

And I'm already up to my neck



If I may pose a question, it'll only take a second

'Cause I know that it's getting late

And depending on your answer I might have to pack

And make a daring daylight escape

Because it's either high time to make you mine

Or I swear it's time to get outta town

So please say "yes" quick, 'cause the sun's going down



London's nice but it's the last place you wanna go

But there's no crime and you can catch a Broadway show

'Cause it's just so far and it's bound to get a hold on you

And I've got front page headlines pulled right outta yesterday's news



You can read all about it

About boy meets a girl and then screws the whole thing up

Just like always



It's no crime to love you

And my heart's still doing time

It's acting on it's best behavior
