[00:01.42] Sitting there at home, he arrived home late
[00:07.36] With no more blood cells to inebriate
[00:13.73] He lunged at her there, she fell from the couch
[00:19.73] He grabbed her body as he pulled her down
[00:24.86] She was screaming no, kicking out at him
[00:32.11] But he weighed a ton, she could never win
[00:37.67] He fell down on her like a sack of snakes
[00:44.74] Tears fell from her face as she cried and cried
[00:50.30] When there's hope, when there's fear
[00:54.30] What is there to say that he might hear
[00:56.99] You turn him down with no mistake
[00:59.80] Now you're leaving, the great escape
[01:12.74] She ran from the room out of their back door
[01:18.18] Leaving him to sleep on the front room floor
[01:24.74] And she walked that night to the town hall square
[01:30.77] She knew it was through and she didn't care
[01:37.21] She stood up to him, he looked down on her
[01:43.46] He shot the message and the messenger
[01:49.08] When he woke he was sick with all the shame
[01:55.15] Tears fell from his face as she cried and cried
[02:01.40] When there's hope, when there's fear
[02:04.52] What is there to say that he might hear
[02:07.77] You turn him down with no mistake
[02:10.96] Now you're leaving, the great escape
[02:27.17]
[02:39.36] She arrived back home, he was on his knees
[02:45.30] Begging with his heart please come back to me
[02:51.11] When there's hope, when there's fear
[02:54.15] What is there to say that he might hear
[02:56.96] You turn him down with no mistake
[03:00.08] Now you're leaving, the great escape
